I'd consult the haynes manual but the v6 in mine won't come out of the top.

removing engine from mondeo
from what i can remember there is not enoughroom to remove the gearbox first, the best way with the mondeo is to drop the front subframe with engine
and gearbox still intact, then strip on the floor, the escorts are far easier to remove the engine.

To remove a gearbox from a Mondeo you must remove the subframe. The bolts holding the subframe to the body sometimes sieze in the captive nuts. If
this happens lift carpet from front and chisel out the soundproofing to show a small grill , cut out the grill and use heat and a spanner on captive
nut. At the front mountings slice open chassis above the bolts, use heat again. Probably best to lower engine and gear box as an assembly.

Unblot the sub frame with engine still attached and drop it out the bottom. Much easier than out the top.
