wow some one has been busy

Well I'll be damned! I'll put my hand up and admit I didn't know the Zetec had oil spray jets like that! I thought it only had spray nozzles on the conrod! Quality! Good pics Ben

BTW that green throttle cable bracket wasn't off a red 300bhp CVH FRST was it??

[Red16]

the 2ltr has the spray jets, as far as im aware the 1.8 doesnt have them.

the green throttle cable bracket was bought from someone on here, i forget who now tho

cheers

[Nilsson]

I wonder from which car this engine is

[FezzR]

[Sphinx]

[purple_fiesta]

[Red16]

sphinx cheers mate

exhaust manifold was bought off ebay, for a n/a focus.

inlet manifold is a rover m16 customised for zetec engine and ofab management.

I wonder from which car this engine is

its from a automatic mondeo estate car

mate great work as ever,
correct me if im wrong but did you not rescently sell a Zetec that you had done similar work to?

yeah just sold this zetec turbo engine which was built using calibra turbo pistons on standard rods



but my new engine will be a better spec

what exhaust manifold is that?

its a tubular manifold from the states, its intended for a n/a focus but im going to adapt it to suit my t34 turbo

[FezzR]

going to adapt it to suit my t34 turbo

any reason behing this? my thoughts are why would you build such a good spec engine and use an "old" turbo, sure you would get better results from one of the GT series.

cost of the gt series turbo compared to the t34 is the main reason, the t34 is still a great turbo (ideal for my planned power output) and i already had a downpipe for it in the garage.

i think i know the exhaust manny you bought, how does the down pipe line up with the 1.8 sump pan if you know?

bearing in mind its on a mondeo the actual pan should be at a different place on the engine to the fiesta, so if the downpipe didnt fit the mondy chances are it will fit the fezz.

lots of rambling with a question in there somewhere

cheers

ive no idea how the downpipe lines up with the sump to be honest with you, as i didnt get one with my manifold.
