I know it's not hard to move stuff around...it's just well. Yeah I'd do it if I had the money and the time. but Foci and cobras aren't my cup of tea.

WE're talking about hat Cobra powered Focus. I can't remmeber who built it for the life of me. SCC did a test on it and loved it, but it had it's short comings....manual brakes overheating etc. But all in all it flat out performed. But it cost I think like 50K to have it done by the shop that originally did the car. I need to go dig up that issue again  I can't remember crap. Oh and about emissions, All I have to do is move about 20 miles west and I'm out of emissions in the next county

Holy COW people! The original post by me YEARS ago, was to prove that a V8 could be put into the Contour and it still be FWD. Making a Contour RWD is easy with enough welding rods and grinding disks. FWD V8 Contour is a LOT easier than most people think.
Oh, and the Continental 4.6L is very wrong in size (and tunability) for the Contour. Stick with the Jag 4.0L or the LS/Thunderbird Lima 3.9L V8. Or one of the nice new 4.2L Jags.
