Brad, is there a "preferred" year of Duratec for a 3L Hybrid swap? I've read Terry Haines discussion about some of the 3L BS on the net at a thread over at fordcontour.org regarding such a hybrid swap and he mentions that newer engines have problems just swapping out heads (ie they need adapters and the like). I am under the impression that this is basically a glorified and sweat-heavy head gasket swap (in addition to block prep, pull old, swap components, insert new).

Or am I waaay off?
