Are you mind-set for a V8 in the Lincoln or would you eventually also consider fitting it with a smaller engine such as a V6? Maybe that 4.2L Essex V6 and the 5-speed manual transmission out of a F-150 could be a good option for that project.
When it comes to the V8, all I'll have to say by now is: don't de-stroke it. You might already know, oversquare engines tend to be more rev-happy and compromise the low-end torque.
Anyway, since you would eventually consider to use a supercharger, maybe you could consider to match it with a longer intake valve phasing.
