Default 2.0l Zetec or 3.0l Duratec Engines

I have a 1963 Ford Consul Capri and am looking to upgrade the engine and gearbox soon. Does anyone know where in Oz I can buy a brand new 2.0l 4cyl zetec or 2.6 or 3.0l V6 engine?

Go to the auctions like Pickles or Fowles, and pick up a written off Focus for a thousand or 2. You'll most likely need the ECU, loom and dash cluster to get you going.

Otherwise I know a place that sells the Duratec 2.0 engine with no accessores for $1500

Second that, unless you're using aftermarket management, get a wrecked car. Everything you need, and it's still living in its natural habitat, so you can get a good idea of how everything goes together. Get a wrecked XR5...you know you want to
