Hi,
i want to fit the ST170 cam cover on my rs1800 engine... will it fit?

Yes it will as the ST170 engine is still a zetec engine underneath...

The bulges in the st cam cover are for all the variable cam-timing gubbins.

Why not throw the rest of the engine in with it eh?

[FiestaXR]

Not really easy in germany...

LOVING the Leopard-skin air-trunking mate! Put some pics up with the new cam-cover on

[adam_frst]

that slver fez looks like a proper sleeper, what engines it got?

[FiestaXR]

we put a ~150hp 1,8 Zetec engine in last year. Some new parts have to be added for this season, when its back from the new paint job

I like the idea of this mod too. Would any other plastic cam covers fit?

[FiestaXR]

I just tried it out - with the camcover of my brothers ST - and the cover won't fit in my rs1800... intake manifold & throttle valve have to replaced by mondeo or focus parts, cause the st170 cam cover is much higher than the std zetec cam cover...

I'll think i give my cam cover to powder coating and take some more leopard skin

[properphatboy]

Would any other plastic cam-cover fit? Or would this mod work if you say had a 2.0 mondeo engine with a Focus inlet?

[FiestaXR]

you mean a cover from a series 2 zetec? This should fit without mods on intake manifold and throttle i think

[properphatboy]

Yeah. I just like the look of the plastic covers. Would be from a series 3 zetec though wouldn't it?

[FiestaXR]

Yes it will as the ST170 engine is still a zetec engine underneath...

I think it will fit...

Could also be from a series 3... in germany we only descern black und silver top's zetec so i'm not sure.

Instead of using a plastic cover you could give your standard cam cover to powder coating in matt black, it's looks nearly like plastic und fits 100%

Ok. Looked at getting this done, but it's kinda expensive really. Thought the plastic cover may be a cheaper and lighter alternative. Can't find any on eBay though. Doubt I'll bother until I drop the 2.0 engine in mind.

Thanks very much for the info though, even though I hi-jacked your thread.
