Does anyone know exactly what is involved with using a zetec bottom end on a escort turbo engine? What pistons, rods ect should i use? Also, any suggestions on converting to EFI?
or any suggestions on websites to visit?

A lot of people use C20LET pistons from Vauxhall and then mod the Ford rod to take them.
