I've heard mention of Ford manufacturing a 3.5L Duratech engine sometime in the near future. I'm kind of wondering if this will be yet another potential upgrade to the Contour via 3.5L short block. I haven't been able to find any spec's on this engine yet or how close it might be to the current Duratec's physical dimensions, but it does pose an interesting question being that it is in the same engine family as the 2.5L.
