ezdusit Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Does it have a different bell housing that was designed to fit the automatic transmission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larry butcher Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 As per an earlier "TWOZ" publication( don't have the # handy) ; there were several distinct differences. The blocks were cast differently, ie; a "boss" was cast into the bell housingarea( left side ?).This was to hold components for the "liquidmatic Trans. The intake manifold was different and again this was written up in an earlier "TWOZ" . You show the intakemanifold gasket propped up , this may show different exhaust gas routing for preheating the carb. Standard V12 blocks/manifolds have this. This is all I can gather from the smallphoto. Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trimacar Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 from the position of the radiator in the picture it must be one of those cross-engine V-12's, very rare! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mssr. Bwatoe Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 liquimatic, look at the big extended smooth bell housing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBoz Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Also, the fan is on top, making it very tricky to tune the carb / mess with the ignition wires while the engine was running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 39 Pickup Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 Does that have the rare automatic choke and intake manifold also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleach Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 It's from this car listed on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lincoln-Continental-Zepher-Continental-1940-lincoln-convertable-/331306708462?forcerrptr=true&hash=item4d236b2dee&item=331306708462&pt=US_Cars_Trucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19tom40 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 If the Lincoln Liquimatic changes to the block were similar to the Mercury block changes, the stock 3-speed trans could not be hooked up the the block. This engine is shown with the 3-speed trans attached. The vacuum controls for the Liquimatic were on the passenger side of the engine and trans. Only the driver's side is shown in the photos.
