Sorry for the confusion guys.

To clarify:
My 00 SVT is in the process of getting new engine and goodies.

Mike - You are correct, my 00 block will be used as a paperweight.

The pics above are from the 98 SVT I purchased for parts.
The car belonged to a pothead - I found tons of baggies and tons of leftover pot residue embedded in the carpet.

The 98 block is so messed up, it's not even worth trying to use as a paperweight!

Andy W. and I pulled the subframe and for $hits and giggles I broke the block down to see how bad it was.

Here are some "dropping the subframe" pics:

that's nuts!

"poor Contour" emotions aside, that looks like a lot of fun!
I wish I had the time to tinker with a parts car and get a good look at how everything is put together.

We were workin with very limited tools, i.e. only one jack! And someone didn't put the right side front suspension back together, so the right side tire didn't support anything. Lastly, we didn't care the engine was junk and the subframe was going to the junk yard when we were all done!

Andy W. The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

And who are you saying didn't put the right side front suspension back together?
And that fluid pan was new.
