Hi guys, I finally found the 3L duratech I am going to buy. Found it in the local paper for $300. I was hoping you could confirm by these pictures I took with my phone that it is infact an 02' taurus motor. I have never seen a 3L duratech, and I really want to make sure it looks like what you guys start out with. Thank you in advance!!

that is a 3.0L vulcan, not a duratec. I hope you havent bought it yet, because thats the wrong engine.
