Maybe it'll fit in a contour. Might make a good swap. Time will tell.

I'd LOVE to try that out. Didn't see any specifics on power ratings though, just specs on the block, heads, build, etc. Either way, the 3.5 V6 should be more than enough N/A power to satisfy any CEG'er. I know I'd be happy with it.

I don't think it will be anything like our Duratecs. It is a brand new design. Similar in name only...

Dang a repost...sorry

Well, people are swapping LS and Jag 3L's in to contours, so I thought maybe there is a possibility

I heard a rumor of 260-280 HP from the new 3.5L

Yeah, I read somewhere that in the future, ALL Ford DOHC engines will be given the name Duratec. It's a familar name by now...an easier way of breaking in something totally new is to give it an old, familar name. Like the Futura they're bringing back...

Maybe the new Futura will have this 3.5L Duratec and if it looks like the pics I've seen of it, maybe my next car
