i had a 2004 LS V8 Sport and the fastest i had it to was 140, AFAIK it was stock and untouched. Trans was about shot but it would scoot still. miss that car. best $500 ever spent. had 87k on it when i got it and black on black.
@@joeltmrw4806 well I actually got lucky cuz I got mine at a Copart auction, car was supposedly flood damaged but showed no signs besides some leaky door seals (common) so interior was dirty but that was it. Car ran and drove great and I put 5k on it even with a hurt tranny
No it wouldn't. I checked the tune on the pcm it was set to 130mph from the factory. I'm almost done with the jaguar 4.2 na swap. Can't wait too get it tuned
@@TurboquandoGaming I'm working on it I have to find the right timing mark on the flexplate so the Lincoln LS pcm can run the motor. So I have to drop the transmission again lol
I don't think so, I had a 93' Z28 to 154mph and it would do it in 5th gear at 5600rpm and 6th would only go to like 4200rpm if I remember correctly?! Went back and forth to 5th and 6th, it just wouldn't go any faster... Never saw an indicator or light other than check engine! 😂😂😂
Lots of miles per hour but very slow after 70mph compare to a jeep v8 5.2 would smoke this car before it top out. Always a good and a bad, a little mod and if u make it 5 sec in 0-60 would be perfect for this car.
142 MPH and that's it! If it's the 3.9l V8 with sport/intercepter package. I love these cars 💯

I literally just got the car you explained for $600 it's an 06 😂. Also grabbed a decent one for $1500.
I have a nice one with 94k miles@@joeltmrw4806
Just snagged an 04 3.9l v8. It's fast as is, I cannot wait to start doing minor work to it.
Thats insane dude
There's just something about watching a V8 pull, and seeing the MPG go down. LMAO
Honoring the ultimate Honda Accord and Toyota Camry slayer of the mid 2000s! ❤️
I got my 05 Lincoln LS to 145 and still climbing I’m pretty sure they are governed at 155
My 06 wont go past 135 you can feel it cut the power
Better order the X4 tuner from unleashed :P
142 is the limited speed, that's what I did in my 05 ultimate
@@jonathanberry8255 what about a 2000
132 my guy
Check out the mpg drop 😂😂🫢
Got my 2000 v8 sport up to 145 going to Houston
These are some fast cars! I have a Thunderbird with the same 3.9L V8.
hi im buying a 2000 lincoln ls v8 3.9 with 150k miles .. are the parts hard to get to
@@justinc9911 get the 2003 and up, and It depends on the part. Most parts you can find just some are expensive due to it being related to jaguar.
@tormentor one no it doesn’t lmfao
this is fast to you? you must think a camry v6 is quick as hell.
@@ItzzShazey it sure is zoom zoom
got my 05 ls 3.0 to 136, after about 120 the car doesnt pull good in d5 so i had it in d4 and it pulls
My 04 ls v6 does this crazy cars
the v6 isnt any less powerful then the v8. Its powerband is just alot higher
Dam dog I own the 05 la sport ultimate edition v8 and dam I cant do that to my baby lol but it's nice to know I can do 130 if I want gd videos
I got the 06 LS v8 sport as a slavage for $800 and fixed it up and tuned it thing is a beast my m3 just sits now 😅
And yet now and days I'm going 180 in the car motor is still the 3.9 I'm going to push it up to 200 at least try

@@GearHeadSX dont say what state, they'll get on your ass
@@GearHeadSX also im thinking about when i get my license, purchase a 2006 ls, is it worth it?
@@jjinxx420 only if thats the body style you like and it depends on how the car was maintained.
@@GearHeadSX are they reliable?
Wouldn't the dash tell you when you hit the speed limiter?
No it wouldn't. I checked the tune on the pcm it was set to 130mph from the factory. I'm almost done with the jaguar 4.2 na swap. Can't wait too get it tuned
@@GearHeadSX please post the build 🙏🏽 I definitely heard the 4.2 is the motor to go to

Mine goes to 145
2001 LS v8 can hit 145
I got mine up to 155
Oh really??
I was only able to do 134mph on my 04 Ls

Eeeek that’s slow
Yeah it is lol. I blew the 3.9 engine now I'm swapping in the 4.2 NA. We will see how she performs once tuned
😞
These were dogshit Jaguar engines thats why you dont see many on the road today vs a camry of the same year
