Certainly alot more of John's 2.0 litres over there, but there are still many 2.5s. Most of the Channel Island and Scottish customers seem to have gone over to the 2.5s now. It's the age old thing that many people regard the Millington to be a better engine, for no good reason other than proliferation really! Alot of people also regard the XE as a brand deviant engine, but the Millington as a Ford, there's about the same amount of Ford in either! We've been doing alot of Duratec development over the last year and the demand seems strong for them. One of the cars running a JRE Duratec is a 4WD MG ZR, to replace the Judd K-series they apparently had heaps of trouble with before. I saw it got an overall stage win and was beating most of the WRCs until a drive shaft failure at Wexford.

Good to hear that the JRE 2.5 are becoming popular, that Judd k series in Roy Whites MG S2000 was an awful motor had to be rebuilt after every event to ensure it didint let go, i knew he had a new duratec but didnt know it was JR motor...he was very impressive to watch and listen to in wexford and hes a happy man with the reliablity....PS sorry for taking away from the original topic!
