bronze4door Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 i was thinking bike carbs and mega jolt igniton there is a 100E anglia that comes to our classic ford meets that is running this set up on a standard zetec and it has nearly 150 bhp at the wheels and the fella i bought the state off has a mk1 fezza with an 1800 zetec running this and says it was about 700 quid to do it on his Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmotorsport Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 (edited) i was thinking bike carbs and mega jolt igniton there is a 100E anglia that comes to our classic ford meets that is running this set up on a standard zetec and it has nearly 150 bhp at the wheels and the fella i bought the state off has a mk1 fezza with an 1800 zetec running this and says it was about 700 quid to do it on hisWhat is it with Bike Carbs? I don't see the appeal, they get badly put onto a manifold and wear out quite quickly, pair o' Weber 45's are probably cheaper and sit on a nice alloy manifold and sound so much better. 100e's are Pops not Anglia's Nearly 150? Can't have been dialed in correctly. I'd say squeezing 160 with correct chokes, jet sizes and exhaust system. 700 quid is about right, depending on how good your knowledge on chokes and jetting is and if you could do it all yourself. Looks like a thread for AHMotorsport alrightYou said it. Edited May 11, 2011 by Ahmotorsport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 160hp at the wheels on a 1.8 zetec on carbs? You're dreaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMk6 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 160hp at the wheels on a 1.8 zetec on carbs? You're dreaming. Mr Stu, How much would the 1800 head on a 2000cc block alter the compression? and how much 'extra' if any power would it give? Also any running issues etc that would arise from this? extra components you would reccomend? I'm more than likely going to find these answers when I click on Jordans thread, or, Get lynched by Pete for asking it in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronze4door Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 i will be happy just to get it back on the road and that is why i am not going to play with it yet as i dont fully know the best way to gain power out of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
