I don't have that many SVT parts......rear sway bar, instrument cluster, rear brakes....

You don't understand!   Picture a SVT with real low roadrace supension, Mirko, Touring wing (for Me), big rubber and OZ superturismo GT wheels. Now add Built ZETEC Turbo with intercooler, Terry Haines Built tranny with LSD and for Flash have the exhaust exit in the left front behind the wheel well (for flame display on overrun). This is sort of what I had in mind. No one expects a 4 cly CSVT. Yes it would be $$$$$$ but its just an idea, someone will do it eventualy........ BTW turboed 4 clys have made Mucho HP in many forms of racing (over 1000 in F1, near that in some IMSA GTP cars in the 80s/90s)

At this point the only SVT specific parts you'd need would be the bumpers and side skirts. Why not just take a POS Zetec car and go from there?

What are we not understanding? Theres very little weight difference, meaning little to no advantage in a road race. And how many turbo Zetecs are there puting out the kind of HP the turbo 3.0's are making? It just seems like ALOT of work for less payoff.

all things being equal there is no replacement for displacement. we would rather have a bigger engine with mods abc than a smaller engine with mods abc. that and putting a lowly zetec in in our beloved svt's would be sacrilage resulting in excommunication. lol

Let's get a Porsche 911 Targa, and then put in an old Corvair turbo engine and then mod it until it's almost as fast as what we started with.
Someone IS eventually gonna do that, right?

No, I just don't get it  Why butcher a poor SVT? Why not just start with a Zetec car, saving yourself all the effort of an engine swap? We've already discussed why the 3.0 Duratec would be a better performance option. Why would anyone who owns a SVT want to swap to a lesser engine? All that work and money just so you can say you have a 4 banger SVT?
