They are available in AWD in Europe, so the tunnel and the rear are built to accomodate the setup. The Contour was never intended to be a Rally car or have any other setup than FWD. That RWD proposition seems MUCh more difficult that it would be worth. Buy a frikken RX7 from the late 90's and upgrade the turbo. You will then have a real 10.00 second ET street car and you will have the same money invested. This is coming from the driver/Owner of FrankenFord.
