Hi all, I am going to be swapping my 1.0 ecoboost engine with a newer low mileage refurbished one as mine is shot. Just got a few questions - 

1. Is there any special tools needed for just a simple straight swap, one engine out and one engine in?

2. Do these engines have a stretchy belt installed or non stretchy?

Cheers in advance!
