Well thats really disapointing. Thanks for your input though, its always good to hear from someone who's built a car already.
Its a shame though, I'm a huge fan of the Duratec engine and I really love European Fords.
Unfortunatly I think I'll have to start looking elseware for an Oddball IT car, maybe a Volvo 850 or Infiniti G20?

I may still pickup a Contour as a daily driver though, my current 944S is great but no normal human could fit in those back seats!

Oh and btw Todd that Mazda/Ford V6 in your Probe was used in the BTCC Mondeo's Fred just mentioned. They shortened the stroke and dropped the displacment to a little under 2.0 liters.

Thanks for the input everyone!
