I wouldn't trust it unless I saw the motor apart and saw the Manley stamp on the rods. As for right now I just think its a cobra motor with a eaton blower on it. But the price is pretty good for that.

 

I wouldn't trust anyone who says:

"DON'T ASK ME WHERE I GOT IT, I'M NOT TELLING. AND NO THIS MOTOR IS NOT STOLEN. DON'T ASK ME THE PART NUMBER. IT DOESN'T HAVE ONE. ALL SALES FINAL".

Just sounds a little shady to me.

 

Well it does have the SVT plate with the two signatures on it. Still, that could be forged. This guy could work at a Ford parts dept and maybe pulled some strings to get this thing in. Its not like it cannot be done. Jackson Racing got its hands on a few new SVT Focus motors for blower development about a year before the SVT hit dealer lots. But, I would be very skeptical, especially since it is on Ebay and the guy isn't willing to give up how he got the motor or what the part # is.

 

For that much money you can buy an intercooled procharger and go faster.

 

Or you could drop a carbed 302 in it for even less money.

 

I thought the whole point was to go faster not slower.
