A company actually makes this swap possible with a kit. I think it's around $5,000 for the setup.

Alright,

You're either trolling hardcore, or you're rrreally ignorant. Either way, I'm going to bite, since I think the v8 focus cars are badass...

#1 Viper engines are V10#2 All of the focus V8's that I've seen are converted to RWD using ford rear ends and a custom driveshaft. I spoke with a fella from Kugel Komponents (the first guys to cram a v8 into a focus) and their kit was roughly 18 grand on top of the donor focus.
