I just sent him a PM. Here is a copy of the message. I believe he is honestly confused.
"You are greatly mistaken about the SHO motor. It isn't anything like the Duratec 2.5 or 3.0. Those parts will not interchange.
If there was a 3.0 conversion (and I believe you) most likely it was either from a Taurus or an Escape. Both of those are the same family as the engine the SVT originally came with. The SVT intake manifolds can be used on the 2001 and later Taurus or Escape Duratec 3.0 with a little modification to the 3.0 heads. Also the 2.5 heads with the 2.5 intakes can be used but the compression ratio is about 11.25 to 1, a bit difficult to work with.
Many of those that have commented on the misunderstanding about which engine could be in that car have done 3.0 conversions themselves. There is a forum at CEG just for the 3.0 conversion. If you look back a few posts on the thread about this car you will find photos of both engines.
One of the big differences is that the SHO uses a timing belt, not a chain. There are chains on the backside connecting the intake and exhause cams, but the primary cam drive is a belt. The SHO was developed around the Vulcan 3.0 pushrod motor. Ford approached Yamaha about building dual overhead cam heads for the engine and Yamaha responded that they would only be interested if they could do the entire engine. Ford said OK, but the block dimensions must remain the same. One of the weaknesses of the SHO motor is that the block bell housing is too small to permit a large enough clutch for the power that the engine produced. After a few years of production, Ford got their clutch vendor (Valeo I think) to make a custom sized clutch, a diameter between standard sizes and unique to the SHO. Before that the SHO was smitten with pre-mature clutch wear problems.
The SHO also uses a completely different valvetrain design. It has direct action cam followers (lifters). They are solid lifters, not hydraulic, and use a shim in a bucket adjusting method like many motorcycles and early Volvos. The Duratec uses finger followers with hydraulic lash adjusters.
The differences between the engines are too numerous to bother mentioning here. The point is, to someone that has worked around both engines the differences are too obvious for you to try to tell us that the picture of the engine is that of a SHO or any part of a SHO.
A 3.0 Duratec properly built, especially with a blower on it, should run really strong. It is nothing to be ashamed of. But it isn't a SHO."
