2003 Mercury Marauder Silver Birch with Black interior Fully loaded minus sunroof(they look out of place on a car this big and are prone to leaking) The car has the following Mods: 4.10 gears Circle D Triple Disc 11” 2600 rpm stall torque converter Built Transmission installed at 64K Supercharger from a 03 Cobra and supporting mods installed at 64K After Market Tune for the Engine management and transmission shift schedule Engine- The engine has never given me any issues. Never burned any oil between changes(3000 mile mobile one for me). No smoke on cold start. I recently replaced the timing chain tensioners and guides and the inside of the motor was very clean. Compression numbers are 217 218 222 218 220 210 225 218 New Ford Water Pump, Changed the Oil and coolant and installed new Spark plugs. Band new motorcraft 850 cold cranking amp battery Transmission- It’s a 4R75W in a 4R70W case. It has extra clutches, reworked valve body, HD overdrive bands and the Forced Tail Shaft Lube Mod. It currently has about 15k miles on it and I just changed the fluid. This transmission has performed awesome. The shifts are quick and firm at low throttle setting but not to harsh. The more aggressive you get with the throttle the more firm the shifts get. It has a aftermarket 24,000 gvw transmission cooler installed with a 180 degree thermostat. The OD to 3rd Downshift. In order to install the extra clutches the “Wave Plate” was removed The only negative to this is when the transmission downshifts from OD to 3Rd you can feel it. Its not bad or scary its just noticeable. On must automatics you can feel the up shifts but as you coast to a stop you can’t feel any of the downshifts. With the “Wave Plate” removed you feel the downshift from OD to 3rd. Torque Converter- 11” Triple Disc Circle D Torque Converter with the new transmission. Based on Chris at Circle D’s recommendation I got a slightly lower then stock stall speed. I loved the way it drives. Rear Differential- New Ford Racing 4.10 gears with all new inner bearings and carbon fiber clutches at around 60K. For my type of driving I actually got slightly better gas mileage Blower- The blower is a used 03 Cobra factory eaton. Was told it had about 50k on it. I replaced the oil and coupler when I installed it. No issues. Ford GT fuel Pump with BAP.39# from a Cobra90m MAF from a Lighting.LFP Dual Pass Lighting IntercoolerStock cobra IAT2 sensor and location.I kept the EGR and it passes emissions testing with no issues. The Car put down 374RWHP and 384 ft-lbs. Air Fuel ratio is 10.2-1 at WOT at 13 degrees of timing. It starts pulling timing at 100 degrees IAT. Most would call that a very conservative. It runs and drives GREAT!!! Driveshaft- While the car was down during the Eaton Swap the Driveshaft balanced and replaced the U-Joints Interior-Is in good shape. Org floor mats are a little worn. I’ve treated the leather twice a year. No boost gauge but I replaced the factory gauges with an AEM Air fuel and an Aeroforce gauges. The tires are Nitto Motivo with less the 2000 miles on them. After the tires were installed I had it aligned The Front Brake Pads are new and the rotors were just turned. A/C was recharged last year and blows cold. Body- The Paint is in above average condition. No Fading. No Rust. All original silver paint. There is a dent on the driver side fender(pictured) that I will get fixed at a paintless dent repair shop before the auction ends The right front wheel has some significant curb rash. The other 3 look good. The windshield has 2 small chips that have been treated to prevent spreading. Also this car has the factory air ride suspension and works perfectly. The exhaust is completely stock and is super quiet. I didn't want anything loud. The car is a sleeper. The car has 5% limo tint all the way around and 35% on the entire front windshield. Has an autopage alarm with two pats keys. I have been a 100% positive feedback member since 2002 and I refuse to sell junk. This car is in tip top shape for it's age and will put a smile on anyone's face. Thanks for looking.
