scottybo Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 When i get home (on my phone atm) i will run through everything needed for a 2l zetec conversion Another option would be to consider a 130 spec 1.8 On paper its only marginaly slower than a 2k and the engine will slot right in. The 1.8 is also much much easier to find and much cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrence Selly Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 On paper its only marginaly slower than a 2k and the engine will slot right in. The 1.8 is also much much easier to find and much cheaperI have read this, and as I have the 1.8 fitted already (105ps variant) it could be an easy option. Its just finding one my way (SY8 area) for some reason every other car is a 2.0 mondeo. I'm going to overhaul the engine, strip down, rebuild with fresh shims, plugs, bearings, and tuftriden crank, along with ARP bolts throughout. I want to do it once and do it properly.

scottybo Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Oh well if ur gna rebuild what u have. Just buy a ho manifold. 130 cams and oil spray jets. Fit them to your engine and then find an ecu to match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
