If you have the parts for a ZT conversion, it makes sense to do one.

I had a ZVH in my Orion some time ago but that was a N/A one, I wouldn't bother with one if you planning on a turbo, stick with a 1600cvh or go all out with a Zetec or if you can strech the budget and have the know how then a Duratec Turbo, I can't wait to see what Ian Howells one can do.
