*aHEM* .... echo... echo...! Hello? As far as I know it a 2.3L engine not a bored out 2L. Imo I doubt the Focus ST engine will fit. The 2.3L eninge does *just* as its only a tiny bit taller.

with a little bit of chopping and welding anything could be possible, but why the sudden change i thought you were seriously considering selling it? and you definantly loose your warranty then

LOL no i wouldnt lose my warranty its a ford engine in a ford car
Just when you go hacking the exhaust to bit and fitting induction kits it seems to brake things eh adam
Was just wondering cos id love to put the time/effort and money into having a Fiesta with a 2.5l turbo engine would put A-pillar gauges on it from the Focus dash and a MAHHHOSIVE dump valve everything would be very... err different
Anyway im not selling her now could never part with her

But there old engines whereas a Focus engine would be nearly new to match the car its going in no point putting a really old engine in a new car

its not that old and they easy to mods or fit in cars!!
Just whack a Turbo on the standard ST engine you already have. You'll still get the opportunity to fit your "MAHHHOSIVE dump valve" and there surely is already a kit available which would cost less than an entire engine swap.

You'd be in for major mods to fit a Cosworth engine to the Fiesta as the YB engine is designed for longitudinal fitting so turning it around 90 degrees to fit the Fiesta box would be a hell of a job. Alternatively you could simply fit it lengthwise complete with the cossie box but again you'd be in for major mods and probably at making it RWD...
