So I was just browsing the net and I was looking on F2 and saw they had used 2.3 Duratecs for sale . So, I was wondering if anyone knew if I would have to change out anything else if I were to exchange my 2.0 zetec for the 2.3 duratec?
Also, do you know the HP and torque specs.
You will need a clutch, flywheel, passenger motor mount assembly, and probably an ECU / Harness. For the 20whp gain, there are a LOT easier ways to go about it.
UDP + Intake + Exhaust... easy 20 hp.
Zetec: 130hp/135tq
2.3 Duratec 150hp/150tq IIRC
In other words, it's not worth it. Mod the Zetec, make equal power with much less hassle.
smaller pully wheel underdrives your engine periferals while sucking less HP away from the engine. lessens the difference between HP at the crank and HP at the wheels

UDPs are a very good value for the money. I think most of them are around $100. You'll notice the difference immediately. I'd stay away from 3 piece kits, though. They're more $$, a pain it the ass to install, and won't net you any more performance.
