Looks like a couple of the old mondeo touring car engines have turned up....
they'd take some serious looking after mind you!
What's 6,500 euros in real money these days? - You could put something fairly nice together for that!

going to need low comp pistons if you plan on running ANY kind of boost! also i would want the engine to come with a full top end (the pictures just look like a short block). also dont forget that these are only 2.0ltr engines!!!!!!

A better option might be speaking to someone like Mountune and get them to build you a boosted motor. I think they have stroker kits that could push the displacement upto something like 3.4ltr! Be intresting with a couple of Gt28RS turbos strapped to the side!lol

good find obes

might be based on a 2.5 and de stroked

330 bhp N/A is no mean feat

an alternative would be to fit a duratec 2.3 4 cylinder turbo if you wanted to save weight

best to just go for an AER usa engine and fit some decent turbo's IMHO

One of these race against us, it was a pig to start, often needed towing.



And sounded like a tin of nails
