Fiesta RS

In reply to singleslammer:

6.2 should fit anywhere the 5.0 DOHC does.

In reply to singleslammer & WOW Really Paul?:

And if it didn't fit, wouldn't be the first time that Ford crammed a motor in an engine bay. Ahem, looking at you, Boss 429

In reply to NickD:

They should put the 6.7PSD in a mustang, just to make people scratch their heads.

Ford didn't do that, they subbed that work out to Kar Kraft. Which is why every Boss 429 has a KK number.

(they had to move the upper control arms. Yeesh.)

Okay, Kar Kraft did it, but still, that motor is really squeezed in there. Pity the Boss 429 was more bark than bite (in street trim)

I'm waiting for the day they put one of those twin turbo V6s in the Mustang instead of just the turbo 4. But I doubt they will, as it'll make the V8 look bad (unless they swap the 5.0 for the 6.2, but IIRC, that thing is iron block and heavy).

Fiesta RS thought to be 2.0L FWD? I would be thrilled if they made it AWD but doubt it. I'd get that over the Focus RS. I'm tired of the smaller car always being watered down.
