As the owner of a Focus and very deep into the community, I can attest that all the Focus's with the V8 conversion are a blast. The guy who owns that ZX351 has actually been trying to sell it for a while, but it is quite a niche vehicle and try getting a loan for a car that far over book.

Here is my ride in the RS8: http://www.webtrendsguy.com/video/FocusVideos/goatrs8.wmv

I had actually planned on doing the V8 conversion next year but since the current build is going so slow it will probably be the year after.

I've wanted to do that swap for a while. Tricky part is trying to find a focus that has a blown motor or cheap enough. It doesn't look to tricky, companies make all the brackets for the rear end and susupension along with a cradle for it too. I've priced it out just in parts about $8k to do the swap.

Yep, they even sell the parts in the Ford parts catalog to do this.
