scottybo Posted May 18, 2014 Author Share Posted May 18, 2014 Oh i dno mate. Not sure about wiring loom etc. I dont have an mtx box. Will it work with my digi dash? What about engine mounts? Cooling systems? I literally know nothing about the i4 engines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongo Posted May 19, 2014 Share Posted May 19, 2014 Yeah tbh Scott,if you only have the engine,you spend loads getting the other bits,you really need to buy a Ritter like I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottybo Posted May 19, 2014 Author Share Posted May 19, 2014 The engines complete. Including all ancils. Just missing the exhaust manifold and of course ecu. Apaz ib5s will bolt up to them quite happily. I might use it for something else. Or if u recon these engines really are that good id consider puttin it in the scort. Research timelol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt like to take time away from your escort. But u have done more engine changes than anyone else i know. They always seem to be done so quickly and always work well! I dont know anyone with that much experience and having never changed and engine myself its a rather daunting task for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
