Re: ford 3.0 l engine

Yes and no.

The vulcan in the tempo was not totally the same as the vulcan in the Taurus/Sable. I know several of the accessories had different brackets so the engine would fit in a Tempo engine bay.

So the block may fit, but you may need to swap some accessories around.

Not to mention that all of the electronics for the engine including the computer and wiring harness will have to be swapped. Also, the tranny are probably not interchangable because I believe the sable tranny is computer controled.

There's a guy at www.tempotopaz.com that put a 3.0L engine from an 89 SHO into a 94 Topaz, so it's possible, but probably not gonna be easy.
