The engine is based on the Ford Duratec used in the Mondeo in both 2.5 and 3.0 litre form. I doubt you could buy that engine direct from Noble with loose change but you could probably build a similair lump for a lot less.

Unless you have space restraints I wouldn't bother with it. You could turbocharge a Cosworth 24v and get over 300 hp from a few pounds of boost on a stockish engine. Or if you have the space just fit a bigger engine such as a rv8 and blow that.
