Default ford sierra 2.0CL Restoration

Hello
My name is Eli, I'm from Israel

I own a Ford Sierra 2.0

Year 1988
Pinto engine carburetor pierburg 2E 205
TRANSMISSION TYPE-9

Hence continue the pictures:









new air filter



new fuel filter



New water pump








For some reason the previous owners decided to pull the thermostat
New thermostat ->



Rear bumper replacement


old oil


New oil filter



Old exhaust



New exhaust



New plugs and Leads



I canceled the mechanical fan and I changed it to an electric fan
new fan to radiator
(Originally conditioner condenser fan)







Radiator cleaning was carried out using high pressure water (not photographed)


Previous bumper was a Scorpio
New front MK3 bumper









I have a question for people here Ford Specialists
Original paint my valve cover is the color shown above:
There is a chance this engine has a cylinder head of Pinto 2.0I? [Injection cylinder head]
I think so because the engine was not original to this car, and because I saw that Pinto carburetor with a black valve cover and Pinto injection valve cover came with this color.
Am I right?



Fix some electrical problems behind the dashboard
Air-conditioning, lighting, buttons, etc. ..

Now everything works

A good friend brought me a valve cover of Pinto 1.6
I buffed it and I painted it well off the heat


Hope to wear it soon

fiberglass pod gauge:









Japanese "finishes" Recent



test
:smash:




shocks:
(Right: New
Left: Old)






Thank you saw until now

This is for now

I do not have much time to work on the car so I work slowly
All that I had in 5 months.
Hope to finish with the "alignment line" quickly so I could start with the improvements

Hope to get more ..

It looks fairly solid.

One way to check if it's an injection head is to look at the inlet ports, they should be pear shaped and non injection ports are rounder

Yes I know that the best way to see it as ports of the head and I also know exactly how the injection ports, but I ask before I break the intake manifold if there was any way to check

If this injection head, I put the injection. If I replace my carburetor carburetor seems to WEBER 30 \ 34 or to WEBER 32 \ 36 [depends on the manifold I'll]
