- Attention owners considering V6 conversions!!! Appearently, there is a dutch auction on rebuilt V6 Ford engines. However, from what I can make out, they are the earlier 2.6 engines. For $250 each, is

- Jan, don't know much about Ebay, but the way I see it, the $250 price (current high bid)fetches the whole 400 engines! They are selling 250 engines and asking for a bid, and not specifying that the $

- They sure did - the V6 was built in 2.0, 2.3, 2.6 and 2.8 capacities - this was the German "Cologne" V6. There was also the English "Essex" V6 in 2.5 and 3.0 capacites. A couple of websites .... htt

- If you ask e-Bay for an explanation of Dutch Auctions, you will get quite a lengthy response. In short, this is a format most often used when a quantity of identical items is offered. The price quote

- Gee, I suppose it could be a 2.0, or a 2.3, I didn't know they made them. The simeased exhaust ports give it away as the 2.6 engine to me. The seller also is selling hundreds of Gov. surplus 1-2 cyli

- Why don't you buy one? I'll split the price with you ($125) if you buy one just to get the engine measurements!!! What about a mating transmission? Were these engines made for front wheel drive cars

- The Ford Taunus (German) and Granada (English) were front engine/rear wheel drive, so these engines almost certainly were for RWD application. The V6 was also used in the English/European Capri, als

- Carefull on the magic german V6 engines. Parts are absolutely NOT available in the US, and some parts like the exhaust manifolds, which you will need, are not the same as the larger (2.8) V6, and mig

- If you use the Joe Rodriquez conversion package you must make your own headers because this engines exaust ports are different than the 2.8L. The 2.8 has three ports and I think the heads on this mod

- Actually the 2.8 engine was 105 HP, the 2.0 would run in the 80 HP realm, which would leave you with little more than a new engine, and a tad more torque. Jarrid between the difficulties with this b

- Well, one could use Joe's headers, but one out of three pipes needs to be removed. Ian and I have a 2.6 V6 Alpine and it looks like the two into one header is much easier to make for someone. So ther

- 2.6 was 125. That's in the European DIN way of quoting, which I understand is more conservative than the method used by Rootes in the 1960s. So 90 bhp (or PS as they say in Europe) DIN may well be w
