2.3L Swap. Easy? Do-able?
The 2.0L in mine is junked. Needs a rebuild, if it's even savable. As far as I'm concerned it's dead. It burns oil badly, drips oil and shoots it back up through the throttle body. I'm calling this one case closed.
So! With this misfortune, I get an opportunity to upgrade. I'm optioning going to a 2.3L duratec... or putting a 2.0 back in.
What are my options, afaik the 2.3 has better aftermarket? Will it bolt right up to my trans?
