Kugel Komponents has been making Ford V8/Focus swap kits for a long time. Their kits enable you to run a 4.6 L or 5.0 L V8 in your Ford Focus and convert it to RWD. The full kit cost about $8,000 and includes engine cradle, transmission mounts, suspension crossmember, front steer and hub kit, sway bars, rack and pinion kit, transmission cover, fuel tank, headers, diff crossmember, 4-bar kit with shocks and springs. Of course you can purchase the parts separate if you want as well. Kugel Komponents estimate it would take someone with decent skill level about 100 to 150 hours to install everything.

Hey I would like to know two things
1) Do you guys also have the transmission to go with the swap kit too and the total amount with both the swap kit and transmission
2) Would this kit be compatable with my 2014 focus.
I recommend contacting Kugel Komponents directly with these questions.
I have a 2007 2.0l 4 cylinder automatic ford focus se sedan. Does this kit work with my vehicle? And what transmission swap kit would I get to pair with this kit, if compatible?
You guys need to b\ild a v8 kit for the pt cruiser
It’s called buy a prowler
You would need to cut the engine compartment in half an add a foot to it, the 4 cylinder is a tight fit.
Will this kit also work with the 2.3L EcoBoost from the 2015/2016 mustang?
Hi I have a 2002 for focus. I would like to use your kit to install a ford 302 can you send me pics of an installation and also I need a costing for all the bits and pieces.what rear end do you recommend?
