I love just about anything Cosworth has ever done with Ford. Seeing as the regular 2.9 shares alot of similarity to the Cosworth 2.9, I don;t see many problems in the actual swapping of the engine.

You'd be doing an injustice by NOT swappin in the Cossie.

Keep us updated on your swap, I am planning on doing this aswell, as a complete car goes for around 1500$ in Norway (they all have broken A4LD's, and who wants that tranny anyway`???

if it's a cosworth, its not a north american spec car. from what i hear the cosworth 2.9 is a dohc that makes somewhere in the 190hp range. definitely worth the time if not for the 'cool factor' alone. i cannot say how easy/difficulty the swap would be though. if it will accept stock motor mounts and a stock clutch and trans (or 4.0 trans) i say go for it!

hi
yes the cosworth its the same block with the 24 valve on it my question is could i use a 2.9 ecu with that cosworth engine i dont have a ecu thank
