Default Re: Mazda...Duratec or not??????

Quote:
the zetec may or may not be mazda designed, but it defintely has nothign to do with the current duratec line. THere WILL be a 2.0 duratec/MZR in the focus...in 2005. ITs one hell of a performer compared to the zetec.

for all intents and purposes the duratec line IS the MZR line, just depends on whether you ask a ford guy or a mazda guy.

THe ZVH block (zetec) is actually an evolution of the CVH family as far as I know (SPIs)...
They are not Mazda designed. They are Ford designed with input from Mazda and Cosworth (the new Duratech 2.0-2.3 family of engines being use by both manufacturers)
