1.4 8v to XR2i 8v???

Postby buff on Wed Apr 21, 2004 2:14 pm

should this be a straight swap?

car is a 1.4 Si at the mo, engine will be coming out for new sump and cam.

i can get an XR2i lump complete for about the same price so im considering firing that in :D

will my gear box work with it?

and is the clutch bigger in the 1.6?

also i read on the site that the xr2i 8v produces 110bhp! is that right?

Cheers Neil

Engine and gearbox are a direct swap but you need the wireloom 2 and the ecu because the 1.4 is a singlepoint injection and the XR2I a multipoint
Cluths is bigger and yes the 1.6 has 110bhp if you have the one without cat otherwise you got 105bhp

Cheers for the info though :D so new clutch on the cards for sure now but still its not going to cost much over £200 for everything :D extra 40bhp for £200 best value performance mod :D

Dunno for sure if the 1.4 is multipoint injection
If you lift the airfilterbox and it looks like a carb you have singlepoint
Efi means electronic fuel injection and is used in most ford after 1990
If you use the gearbox of a XR2I and the engine you know that the clutch is about 20 mm bigger then the 1.4(at least it was when i had a 1.4)

The Si is multipoint EFI injection. Same as the 1.4 Escort of around the same year.
