Hey does anyone know where i can find info on what Springfield does to these Crown Vic's to make them Intercepters? I know it's got a 4.6L V-8 pushing 239hp@4700rpm but i wasn't sure what else they get done to them. (i'm not trying to out run cops) i was just curious.

I agree. Mostly, they just flash the PCM with a more aggressive program. The 4.6 retains its stock internals and the engine compartment gets more wiring for all the lights, sirens, and radios. I just left a Lincoln Mercury Dodge dealership where we worked on Impala, Intrepid, and Crown Victoria Police Interceptors. None of the internals were modified for the "police package". My uncle claims that his Crown Vic squad car barely managed 110 mph on an open road. Go figure
