No, it's way to thick, the motor's stick out too far. I tried it and had to go to a sn-95 type fan.

If you can find an electric fan from a MK8, I would get one. It is a quality stock piece and should fit with little to no modification.

93-98 Lincoln Mark VIII. I was doing some more research and some people have had fitment issues but the fan is pretty much as good as it gets aftermarket or stock.

How does the MkVIII fan compare to the Taurus fan in terms of cooling power and fit? I saw this article on a Taurus fan install:
