    More likely someone from Marketing will determine which existing Ford engine
    will fit into the engine bay with the least amount (ie lowest cost) of
    conversion.
    In 6 years lift the hood of a Defender, crawl underneeth and ins[pect the
    rest of the drive line, take a look at the rims and bolt pattern and you
    wount be able to tell the difference from an Explorer/Ranger/Sport etc.
