Title: Another thread for my car! A possible engine
Post by: SVT_Power on September 04, 2007, 06:25:49 PM
Okay another thread.

I found an SVTC engine in Dearborn.

"It does have high miles (140,000), but it ran perfect every day that I had that car. It's had mobil 1 every oil change since it left the factory and does not make any noises, leaks, or smoke ... basically, it should have lots of life in it.

I'm looking for $250 as its shown in the pics."

It shouldn't be too far of a drive and a $250 gamble on the engine. Any opinions?

187,xxx on a normal Duratec 2.5.  Just wanted to let you know. 

My bro's car had more than 140k when he bought it.

Conclusion:  It's a decent option.  Find out why it was taken out and how long it's been sitting.
