Engine Swap for a Focus SES
I have an 08 focus ses coupe. Would i be able to swap that engine out for a raptor engine or a boss 302 engine?

Anything is possible if you throw enough time and money at it.

Well the cobra's 4.6 can fit tightly.. Maybe the 5.0 from the Boss is too big and the raptor one is wayy off

But once again with enough money, anything can work
