Naylor2006 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Love an engine drop, specially a late night one, top work! What happened to the old engine? And are those the rims for a swap you mentioned? They look mint, well the one I can see does. Edited September 10, 2012 by Naylor2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaweV6 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 I thought when we talked about it, you said that 2.0 is the only way to go. I suppose puma was a cheaper solution on a short notice ? Early hours of the morning getting the engine in place lol, just got to sort the manifold/ exhaust out and it good to go So you swapped the loom already ?

Yeh, isnt the Puma setup the right way round though isnt it, guess its damn hard to reverse the setup for the mondeo block? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautiful little engine. my focus is the 1.6 se engine, in my personal experience (and only my experience) ive had nothing but problems with it, so for me at least...100% of 1.6 se's are bad lol, in fairness im pretty sure ive just got a bad example of one as loads of people ive talked to have bin like 'oh didnt expect that to happen these engines are normally really good' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
