Here is my 99 Contour SVT with a fresh oval-port 3l swap done by Bagged. The engine came out of an 04 taurus and has roughly 38k on it. He did a great job and the engine bay has never looked better. Thanks for looking!

That interior is mint! Bagged ought to have a pretty nice retirement fund saved up with all the 3L swaps he does :laugh:.
 
Urban your car is very clean I like it I hope you enjoy it. Scott hats off to you bro for modding another tour with a lovely 3L. Very fine install my friend :}
 
Glad you like it man. It was a pleasure doing it for you.

Looks great man! Can't wait to have Bagged do mine when this 157k mile motor gives out!

Do it before it blows up it's cheaper for you. and it's easier to transport.

Pretty sure it would be more appropriate to ask bagged.

The fact that it still sounds like an SVT does nothing to stop me from wanting to do this......

Sorry to many qoutes for crappy I phone.

Thanks beans.
Andy yours will be done soon enough.
And yes the 3l sounds just about the same but the power and torque difference is very noticeable.

Just wondering...did you need to upgrade the transmission for the 3L swap?

It's nice to have it done but it's not 100 percent needed. I've got lots of guys running around with stock trannies on 3l cars
