Ford then decided to build ther own version of 2.5 and decided to release the duratec. IF prochse had a role in the 2.5 design i have no idea. Never heard of it in my life. I have to ask others who worked at ford (cousins) who are engineers for over 30 years wether of not they got help. The 2.5 was not porchses idea. It was fords!!
