Ford Granada 4.0 twin turbo daily driver dyno run

Is the Explorer 4.0 engine bolt on? What about the gearbox? Does the t9 fit bolt on?

Kinda bolt on but not exactly. Right side engine mount (v6) is 100% bolt on, this gives You correct engine position to modify or fabricate left side (stock v6 doesnt fit engine block bolt pattern). 4.0 oil sump needs to be cut and welded to make room for granada subframe. Or you can use 2.9 sump, most bolt holes line up, but some not, and mounting flange is wider in some places, I think its much better to cut and weld 4.0 aluminium sump. Then You will probably get some hood clearance issues with stock intakce manifold. Plastic one is a little bit shorter, but still very close or slightly hitting the hood. Yes, type 9 gearbox and all v6 flywheels is 100% bolt on, but with torque of that engine and granada weight, I doubt it would last long...
