My mk3 fiesta zetec turbo build FOR SALE

Postby scott1987 on Sat Apr 27, 2013 2:11 pm

hi guys ive been on here a while never really posted much but for the last few months i have been working on a mk3 fiesta it started when i bought an xr2i that on the face of things looked fine until the bodykit was removed etc etc,

After deciding that the shell was a gonner i looked for another doner shell and came across a blue 1.1 pop plus in almost mint condition so i went down to milton keynes and drove it 200+ miles back and began stripping it.

heres a few pics

Then once it was all stripped i started taking parts off the xr2i i have and it went for paint.

this is the car as it stands atm i will add more pics of other bits in between when i get them my phone broke and i lost quite a few

Well its been a while since i posted anything on here and to be honest ive thought about selling up but i have been plodding along with the engine so heres some more pics

Gt28r
Image

A few bits c20xe pistons arp studs acl bearings
Image

Image

Sump painted
Image

Oil return fitted
Image

Image

Image

And as some of you might hav noticed its a blacktop head on a silvertop block and after trying to find a way around running the cam belt i decided to copy someone off another forum by replacing the core plug with a solid one so i can drill and tap it allowing me to run the silvertop setup just need to make sure it wont fall out :S

Image

Thats about it so far just been buying more parts so i have them when im ready

Nice project but that bung is a huge risk IMO. Why not just fit a complete black top engine, or a silver top head? Either will be matched to the spec.

Im having it welded so no chance of it moving i know what your saying and i had every intention of using a silvertop head however this one came up after being reconditioned for a mate and from what ive read the blacktop is a better head to use. Hopefully it will all work out and il be very happy lol
