Is it worth the laughter in which you'd be immersed when I fitted it into the Metro? If so, I'll take it and put it in there, no joke

xr2i_babe :how do u no it will run tho as its never been run. compression could be out etc?
dont no how the full zetec engines work but ive had alot problem from my zetec bottom end
what do you mean by the compression could be out
its a new build engine, any competant mechanic could build an engine up without much hasstle. all new parts have been used etc
as for yours, well, id have a word with who ever built it.
No longer a FRST owner, or even a Fiesta owner

compression etc on the engine will be spot on, block has just been rebored to accept the larger diameter forged vauxhall pistons, new piston rings fitted and all 16 valves lapped in and leak tested
it was originally destined to go in my Clio 16v in place of the williams engine thats in ther now, but i planned on fitting it into my Escort RS1600i not a S1
i was just geting an idea of what its worth to people because im interested in selling it as i want to build a new higher spec engine for my RS16i.

xr2i_babe :What turbo is it designed for, and would a T3 go straight on and run right?
Check out his sig. T34. What do you mean by "designed for"?
