If you're thinking Hybrid Escape, that's a 4 cyl. gasoline engine in that, so I hope that clears it up. Hope I helped...but not sure if I did. Might want to check in with our 3 liter forum below.

A 3.0L DOHC duratec motor with your existing 2.5L heads is a hybrid. Jim Hahn 1996 T-Red Contour SE Reborn 4/6/04 3.0L swap and Arizona Dyno Chip Turbo Kit 364 whp, 410 wtq @ 4,700 rpm
