Martin Keene Posted August 20, 2006 Posted August 20, 2006 I wondering how long before the focus ST 5 cyl engine will be in a westie? Possibly a while... It is principly a Volvo T5 unit, and that is a *big* enigne. Not saying it is not possible, but I reckon it would take quite a bit of work and christ knows where you'd start lokking for a gearbox...
