The V8 conversion kit is the only reason I would ever consider buying a focus:thumbsup:

never knew they have conversion kit out for them... interesting

maybe a little sound editing

i like when he punched it and the car took off in a completely
straight line

no sideways action for such a light car with a v8

later

how did a v8 fit in that? lots of fabrication must of been done and what v8 is in it. the 5.0 mustang?

from what the guy says its a 351 windsor, c4 auto trans and converted to rwd

nice nice original loving it

They sell kits to drop in any small block ford into a focus, there are some even running the 390hp supercharged cobra engines.

...
 

with a cpl of bolt ons you got a 400hp hatch damn:smilie_da

my buddy was in the passenger sit inside that focus when they took that video
i've been told the guy did it in his house garage(that you seen in the video) and took him about 3 years to do it on his own.....obviosly doing on the side whenever he felt like it

as for kits...yes they do sell them.....all bolts on,no welding needed...if yo have time to do it full time it will take you aprox 150 hours to complete the whole thing

in europe they actually had a production of Ford Focus RS8.....awesome looking car....search of it on the internet or youtube ect

That's so sickkk

that video is so old...
sick car...
but so old!

I thought u could buy those kits from Ford svo division ..77.

Ford Racing does sell the v8 kit.

I was reading in 0-60 (magazin) actually it was the premier edition
this guy put a LS1 into a RX7 FD
