    Mazda MZR/Ford Duratec

    Anybody have any idea if a Mazda 3 2.3 engine (MZR) and a Ford Focus 2.3 (Duratec) have the same bellhousing bolt pattern, or is it different? I had read somewhere it was different since mazda does not use the same trans behind the 2.3 that ford does, can anybody confirm this?

    it's the same motor as far as I know. Where'd you read the fucus and 3 used a different tranny?
    No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

      All my searching around about the 2.3, I remember I read it somewhere but idk where and it was the only time I read it, so i was just wondering if anybody else had heard it or knew for sure. I was contemplating something in my head and was trying to find out more info about this engine.
