I am going to do a 2.5L swap into my 07 MX-5 track car.
I have read a lot of whats posted on the net about swap but have a question.
looking on ebay at engines it looks like they list the 2009-2012 fusion (etc) as a group.
And the 2013-14 engines together.
For the swap are these engines the same?? What to look for in vin 8th digit A or 7 ???
2.5 swap what year ???

Re: 2.5 swap what year ???
If it's the same as the 2.3L, all Ford variants (Duratec is MZR, but not) will not have VVT and you're probably going to have to swap the harmonic balancer.
Every time I did my 2.3 or 2.5 swaps, I just stuck with Mazda motors. Easier to put in.
As for the years, anything post-2008 will do. Forged internals. :3

Re: 2.5 swap what year ???
Now getting started on my 2.5 build.
Wanted to know if an 09 or 2012 mazda 6 2.5 would work?
Or only mazda 3's.Any benefits of running either?
