Is there much advantage to be gained from having the later Ford 2.9i V6 lump over the 2.8i, or is the difference negligeable?

Thanks in advance,

Mart

Christ, where do I start?

2.9s good bits:-

Slightly more power, more potential for tuning due to three-port heads on the exhausts, better inlet manifold on the EFI, chain driven cam instead of weird-arse plastic gears

That sort of thing. Even without these bits, the 2.8 is still a good (if rarther heavy) engine.

Don't forget the 190bhp cossy version of the 2.9. You should be able to pick one of those up somewhere!!!!!

Someone I know has turbo manifolds and much experience of blowing the 24v V6

Missing most of the injection though

Dead sexy engine mind

Early engines snap timing chains
