Lima Engine is a Ford Motor Company automobile engine plant located in Lima, Ohio, United States.

The Lima, Ohio Ford engine factory opened in 1957 for the production of a new V8 for the Citation and Corsair models of the Edsel. Production of this engine, the Edsel 410 E-475, is believed to have commenced before the official opening as staff were transferred to Lima from Ford's Cleveland engine plant at the end of 1956.

It subsequently produced six-cylinder engines (the 170/200/250 family), the 385-series 370/429/460 big-block V8 engines, and the 2.3/2.5 L HSC/HSO pushrod four-cylinder engines for the Ford Tempo, Mercury Topaz, and Ford Taurus.

The plant also produced the namesake Lima 2.0/2.3/2.5 L OHC four-cylinder used in the Ford Pinto, Fairmont, Mustang, Thunderbird, Aerostar, Ranger, Mercury Capri, Mercury Cougar, Merkur XR4Ti, and 1993–2006 Mazda B-Series B2300/B2500 compact trucks.
