  1. Not physically large enough for a V8 however if you have an extra 20K maybe more available you could BUILD an Edge with a V8. You will need to heavily modify the physical structure of the Edge. Change suspension, then you have to deal with the TCM and PCM and IPC by adding those components to make ti work which mean gutting out the interior and changing things around. Steering, AC, radiator etc. I think if you do some research on building cars for this type of 'Swap" you will find many issues

     

    Adding a 2.7 will still require engine mount modifications, new TCM , PCM, IPC along with transmission mounts, shafts and front end suspesion and steering work around. Again this might turn into a build more than a swap.

     

    Swap = parts engine and transmissions replaced with little modification

     

    Build = body suspension, frame steering modifications (cutting, welding fabrication) to make engines transmissions fit

    Okay say I get a newer Edge v6 to put back into the car, is there anyway to turbo or superchage the car? Such as building a custom one?

  2. I currently have a 2008 Ford Edge with 223000 miles on it and shes still chugging along, but I want to put a newer engine into it and redo the car to give it more preformance, more specificly I would like to engine swap the current V6 for a faster more powerful V8, Is this possible?? And if so, what would it take to do this, and what would a good estimation on pricing be for the V8 swap and a newer transmission? Any clues?
