The Zetec and ZVH Engine'd RST's have alot more low down Torque.

In the real world, this will make a nicer overall car on the road.

However, it's no myth, Zetec's just don't like to rev like a CVH. I know that the likes of Sunny and Paul J are at the top of the tree with their FRST's, but it has taken ALOT of development to get that far. Personally, I would choose a 250bhp CVH over a 300bhp Zetec.

If I took all the bits off my engine and fitted them to a decent Zetec Engine, I could probably make 350-400bhp quite easily, but thats just not for me.

CVH all the way!!
