Does it have "1.8 Diesel" on the cam cover? Chances are its still an Lynx / Endura engine - there are several different types; Endura-D, Endura-DE and Endura-DI.

Thanks for reply. Cam cover has no obvious molded writing on (unless was old decal and may have come off). Told that it came out of 98 escort. Bought it to put in my van, but thought I would strip and play first. Seems in good nick despite corroded core plug in head. Just did not want to waste time if was only 60 bhp. General thoughts here is if intercooled - should be 90 bhp. A bit more grunt (not much).
Any suggestions as to getting more horses out of this motor? Will porting work? Not a great engine but will give me something to do over winter.
Thanks fella's
