      I must say the fox bodys don’t really appeal to me, they just dont look like what I think the mustang should. I have no problem admitting they can fly when they need to though!

        There are alot of 4 banger contours that came with the 2.0 zetec engine (My first contour was one!), They made a good 135hp…. As for the probe, I am not sure what fuel pump they are using in that one. But there are a few fuel pumps I can use, SVT Focus would be the top choice. The other 2 that I can use would be from a 2.5 mystique, or a 2.5 cougar.

        I have always been considering the 3L change, but theres other things I have to spend my money on first. So I’ll probably go with the SVT 2.5 until it blows. I guess it kinda depends on what version of 3L I went with, I could do a full 3L, or a hybrid which I believe incorperates the upper half of the svt motor. As far as I know there are a few 3L’s that will bolt up to the transaxle (some escapes, some fusions, some taurus, possible some sables)

        This is a picture of a pre-98 contour with a hybrid 3L. Of course he spent alot of time and money on it! (again I hold no claim to this picture!)

          The first thing I do when looking at them, is to look at the reviews. It never hurts to know what other people have dealt with. You can always check craigslist for a used one, Might find a good one cheap

              That is actually stock ride height for them, They came with a special body kit unlike normal contours. I have been going back and forth over lowering it for a while, I want to, but then again the road wants to take chunks out of my bumper.

              I really didnt have a plan for it when I first got it, But after joining a forum dedicated to them, And looking through alot of pictures. I now know how I want it too look. The car I have used as a model for mine, Well it just looks evil.

              Here’s the pictures of the one I look up too! ( I hold no claim to these photo’s what so ever!)

                  Svt went and added alot to it, They upgraded almost everything that matters. Basically they took the 175’ish hp car up to 195hp (not much but you can tell the difference). Then again in 2000 they did more upgrades and got it up to an even 200hp. They were all 5 speed 2.5’s, Which makes me think either your buddy swapped it, or obviously someone who might have had it before him did.

                  It is becoming a common modification when the original 2.5 blows, to upgrade it to a 3L. Mainly because you can buy the 3L’s for a good deal less then the svt 2.5. Thats not to mention the power boost it gives.

                  They are great cars, And believe it or not but I’m actually going to be towing my second one home today. its gonna be number 6309 / 11,445. It needs alot of work, So as of right now I’m not sure if I’m going to restore it or use the parts.

                    Just make sure you let the power drain, I’m not sure how long it takes yours. But seriously be careful! I would hate for someone to come on here yelling at me after breaking their nose or something….

                        Yeah the pieces for these are becoming really tough to find. Its rare to find a dealership that has anything for them now. So far I know it needs a new fuel pump, I’m hoping the spare I had from another contour works in it. Other then that if I can get it running I might fix it up. Right now ive got it up on ramps and jack stands. Those wheels where on there good, Had to kick the hell out of em just to get them off!

                        And about the cowl hood, I have been trying to get my hands on it for years! I almost had one earlier this year, but the seller didn’t want to ship it……

                          [quote]Seems to be every now and then, nothing constant. Next time it happens I will post a screen shot. Thank you for creating this topic so we can help make the site better!

                          I get that often, But I found if you hit the back button and try it a few times it will go through. Its just one of the few bugs they are going to find![/quote]
