Not too sure but i know the v6 motors are robust because my dads had an st24 for the last 3 years and its never missed a beat.
I think there the same engines anyway(2.5 v6)?
Actually i think theres a 2.0 aswell isnt there?

I owned a red 2.5 24v v6 version for a couple of years, great car!
I rebuilt the engine over that time and almost all the parts had to be reused/built as ford no longer make any of them, including crankshaft and conrod bearing shells. Fantastic car thow.
