It was large enough for Ford to get the new/updated dampers for the 2.5L in use for Euro vehicles. How about we play the game this way. You show me data taht disproves the effectiveness of the DMD and then I will shut up. And as for you comment "If you can".......you have no clue what you are talking about...so show me some data Bradness.....p.s. your strut tower brace is still dookie.... :p

It costs them about double per damper to go to the new design (testing/retooling/other stuff). I highly doubt the with Fords current economic status they would simply waist their cash on something to lower cabin noise a few db and lower seat of the pants vibration transfer a few g's. It's tough to argue with the guy who is holding all the data.... .....but I wont let that stop me  When you consider that the 2.5 is a Jag engine now too, it is easy to say yeah they'd throw money at it for refinement purposes only. And hey, we all know price goes down as volume goes up - they may actually have saved money by using them on the Mondeo as well. I know Dan Nixon did research into the Cougars - and IIRC none of them suffer the same oiling problems that seem to plague the SVT's. Anyway - I'm just arguing academicly for the fun of it. If you guys can supply a stock replacement part at a reasonable price that will improve NVH and will most likely imrove reliabilty too then you are doing a great service to CEG'dom.......

The whole reason behind "auctioning" them off was because of their apparent scarceness at the time. So rather than say asking for a fixed price, I let people bid oon them so that only those who REALLY wanted it would have the best chance of getting one, rather than selling it to the first dude with $90 burning a hole in his pocket, with that person not really knowing why he/she just bought the damn thing. You savvy?

Mike Chris Pasut's car is in there, but its Not his fault. Some num-nutz salesman at Lane Automotive screwed up his clutch order and the damn thing isn't here yet. -Mark
