Default MK6 Escort - 2.0L Zetec w/NoS

Well since my gearbox did this last week;





I thought it would be a good time to sort out a bit more power. Im looking to achieve around 150bhp from the 2.0L with a set of cams and the usual breathing mods. Im also going to put a 50 shot of nitrous throught it to raise to 200bhp when needed . Im going to tart the engine bay up a bit aswell with samcos and shiney bits .

Anyway the gearbox was already out;



All relevant ancilleries removed;



The last mount was a bastard;



My mate with a celebratory handstand ;



All out ;



Hopefully the new engine will be here next week so i can start to clean that up. Also need to buy a gearbox and rebuild it...really looking forward to that .

Oh and please dont ask about the gay motorworld hose covers .

Cam cover and some nice stainless bolts to go with it:



My new air filter with my phone as comparison as to how big the bastard is (Group N Cosworth)

No mate, My dad only scraped the bumper. My car ended up like that when your mum fell on it.

I do wonder, out of your 7600 odd posts, how many of them do not actually contain utter shit.

Do you actually leave the computer at all during the day?

Or do you spend most of the day grooming other kids like Gaz

Now as this is a proper thread, and not one about how i am incapable of cleaning shit staines off my terrible paintwork, will you kindly fuck off back to your muppet room

No.

You've got me mistaken for yourself again have'nt you.

But this is what you like? Abusing threads? I mean nearly all of your posts are in gaz's thread giving him shit. Is it not nice?

There was really no need for the picture mate, We all knew Mike C was a C*nt in the first place. Surely you knew that's what the C stands for?

Escort Sump on:



Rebuilt gearbox and some Ancilleries Fitted:




Cambelt & Auxillary Belt Fitted:



Exhaust Manifold On:



On its mounts (Who says you cant put a Zetec in through the top with box and ancilleries on ):



Fitted various pipework, plumbed in power steering:




Rocker cover fitted:



Finished for today:



Just need to bolt the gear linkage up, fit the cat, add some oil and finish a bit of wiring and it is done.

Next step after that is to fit the nitrous, but just wanna get it running right before I fuck about with that

Muzz where did ya get that 4 branch manifold from mate and how much? I can't find one from anywhere,

Good work with the motor i'll keep an eye on this for my own reference as no one on here seems to care about anything other than cossies and rst's on here so it should help me decide to do with my xr3i 130's engine
