Anyone ever thought of dropping the pan and replacing the main and rod bearings as a preventive measure?
CTAmotorsports also has an upgraded oil pan you can pick up that supposedly fixes this oil starvation problem... If I owned a contour with a duratec(I wish) I would pick it up in a second. $140 is a way better price then 1500-2Grand to drop in a new engine.
BTW, get it. You will not regret it... You will Fall in love with this car. Hell, I fell in love with my 96GL, its nothing special but I couldnt ever imigine selling it, Its such a fun little car to zip around in.
