	I've seen a mondeo on e-bay with a knackered engine, I have an engine in the garage that I could use but I have a few questions first off. 1. Will a focus 1.8 zetec engine bolt straight into a mondeo 1.8 Duratec? both petrol. 2. Will the 1.8 zetec bolt straight onto the mondeo duratec auto gearbox? 3. If changing to a manual would this be a big problem? I know I will need a new pedal box and the gear lever from a manual, or would it be better to stick to the auto? 4. Or should I just forget it and let it go? Cheers, Stu.

	Cheers Scary, To be honest that is the response I thought I would get I'll just look for something a bit more retro, and I have just the thing in mind. Cheers, Stu.

	To be fair, it would probably be easier to fit an ST24 engine into it than a Zetec (They did at least have a 2.5 installed in them)! But as above look elsewhere. Duratecs are not cheap secondhand, especially in 2.0 form.
