Found this link(at bottom of this post) by accident yesterday.

No it's not a rally build, but the amount of info and detail is pretty impressive.

Some good duratec porn in there-and some cringe worth carnage pics too.

And Man-I want that valve cover.

Especially now that everyone and their mother is putting cheap junkyard Fusion 2.5's into everything(Foci,Mazda3,Rangers,mx-5's,Bmw's,rx-8's etc. etc), this link seems appropriate.

Speaking of swaps-I ordered another part for the worlds slowest happening 2.3 to 2.5 Focus engine swap last night ...Billet T/B that adapts the DBW 2.5 intake manifold to good old cable T/B like God (or the spag monster) intended cars to have.

That being said, I'm daily driving a Mazda3 that's already been swapped to a 2.5, and the DBW isn't terrible.

It's a little better than the DBW on my 2015 Mazda 6 2.5 skyactiv. They just seem laggy...

Perhaps a tune will help...I like Cables though....


Anyway, concerning this link......
