isn't there a 2.3 duratec? could be that if it's a new car.





You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

im not sure if the 53/54 plate is the same engine, but the earlier 2.3 engine is a bigger 2.0 engine, which is the same block as the 2.0 8v DOHC from the sierra...

in a nut shell, i think it would bolt up, but its a tall engine ( having balance shafts in the sump )
