2.3 ecoboost Thought Experiment

[bobbywalter]

Look close at dowel options. Ford does crazy shit.

Ohhhhh, you planned on keeping your fancy air con?

The later box for ac makes lots of room.


Even the early style eco 4 whizzer can retain the oem h vac easily.

I never went and looked at the one the guy on this board did. But based on what he had I was fairly certain he just needed some light inner door mods and firewall cut. Once I mocked a focus engine my suspicions were confirmed. Factory hvac for 3rd gens is easily doable.

I am still trading around.

But I like the 3.7 6r80.

I have the 4x4 4r55 stuff ready for the 2.3 though....still would have to get the 2.3 m5od case and put my 4.0 stuff in that.

I am having a hard time deciding. Lil Bob says keep it a stick.

If I do the na 3.x and it works tits....we can put it in trs 2 and upgrade it to a ttb 44 and full float rear. Beef the chassis up and it will be a great adventure rig.


If it's shitty...then go eb 4 whizzer

Which 2.3L?

 

[bobbywalter]

Which 2.3L?

Ecoboost 2.0 actually.

Prices are dropping on rwd 2.3, but still real high.

So you are looking for a Duratec/L series case, not a Lima pattern was my point.

Because I have a Lima case in my garage that you can just have.

 

[bobbywalter]

Yes.
