I just talked to my dad and he said that, while the Focus oilpan did bolt right up to the engine, the oil pickup had to be removed cause it's different on our engines. He also said that there is a crossmember that would interfeer with the Focus oilpan if you were to try to mount it with the engine in the car.

So much for using the SVT header, sorry for getting your hopes up, if I did. Oh well, back to the drawing board.

I was preety sure it wouldn't, too bad.
It would be nice to be use Ford "stock" parts,
like the SVTF intake manifold.

You did get my hopes up. Why doesn't some manufacturer adapt a header for cougars/contours (test on both) and sell it? They could sell enough to make a profit... I bet they could design one to fit all foci,contour,cougars, and zx2,, with only minor changes (egr fitting for one) ,, and maybe different downpipes, but sell em alll...... anyways.
