Why would it not? If you brought over all the engine management I would think that the only thing left to do would be have the PATS info flashed in by a dealer.

Getting engine management to tie in with the non-engine components would be a real [censored]. Not to mention the fact the Contour is OBD-II while the Mazda6 is CAN.

OBD-II and CAn is just the management, right? What affect would that have on a straight up swap?

And to get the PATS and other functions to tie in is just a matter of finding someone that can merge the two programs. I can't see it being that hard if one knows what they're doing.

CAN reads and writes differently, a prime example is when I would hook up a Snap-On MT2500 scantool to the 6, the DTCs it would pull would be completely different, as well as the data, than that of an actual CAN-compatible scantool.

Feel free to pour over the ECU wiring diagrams for the 6 3.0:

I see I have a bit of reading and looking ahead of me. Do you happen to know what other Duratec engines are using CAN right now?

The new Taurus (IIRC) and of course all the 6 variants, Fusion. Milan and Zephyr.
