Am I seeing this wrong, or is it really running a carby?

The best part is that it looks absolutely bog stock standard...well done!
May years back in street machine there was an old white '67 Cortina that was full "grandpa spec" with skinny wheels and hubcaps, rear window venetians, and drinking straw diameter exhaust tip, but under the hood was a 460, with a dump pipe coming out of a gutted rear muffler (towards the bottom) with the little original-sized outlet all that was visible...

Does that Focus have a full escort/sierra AWD setup or is it RWD?
Either way it would be a monster to drive though. |

Must be an awesome car for whoever owns it.  Would a current model 2L turbocharged cosworth duratec be a better engine choice though? |

In the States there are many companys who make a V8 kit for the Focus.
Here is a set-up kit. http://www.kugelkomponents.com/focus/focus.html

I love the modified focus, i remember there was a viral video years back, with a guy running a 351W in a Focus over in the states. Was hilarious seeing the guy trying to film it in a car behind, just get left for dead everytime.
