If you toasted an engine in your Escape what kind of engine are you going to replace it with? Spend a couple hundred more for an engine with 20k or $300 on an engine with 57k? -'96 SE MTX 3L -'98 SVT 1,173 of 6,535 -'05 Mazda 6s, loaded, g/f's ride -Need a 96-00 manual on CD? PM or email me

I bought my 03 Taurus Engine from them for a little over $300 and it had under 7,500 on it...Maybe I got lucky, but it looked good on teardown 2000 Contour SVT SF - #542 of 2150
