This guy sure didn't:

Probably not, it's a fairly common swap in England, V8 swaps here in the US are the more generally accepted method...
Here's a 302 in a Capri...

Yes, it's almost traditional here to stick one of the Ford V6s into one that's been equipped with a four banger. The 2.9 Cosworth is quite a decent engine, too, with approx 200bhp in stock form.
To find the reason why V8 swaps aren't massively popular over here, visit any gas station in Western Europe
