Default nice V8 focus
found this while browsing some focus forum. here are the details

It's got a fuel injected 347 with AFR 185 heads, custom roller cam, plus alot of other goodies. The front was converted to SVT brakes while the rear has 11 inch disks on a narrowed 8.8 with Moser axles, 9 inch ends, and 4.10 gears. The SSR wheels are 18x7.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the back using 225-40 front and 275-35 rear S-03's. The front suspension is FK coilover struts and modified Focus central tubular control arms. The rear uses modified UPR radius rod upper arms, Kugel lowers, and adjustable QA-1 coilovers with 550 lb springs. We used a new Motorsports World Class T-5 with the 2.95 first gear, a modified UPR billet shifter, and SPEC stage 3 clutch and aluminum flywheel. It would take too long to go over everything that has been done to the car but that's the basics.

its for sale apparently too

I think it's a great platform for a V8, makes a nice sleeper.
