right its time to finish the car off
PLANS
- Restore the underneath of the car to a better than factory finish
- Its new engine time
about two years ago i bought an engine from a young lad that had a good engine from a guy called paul johnson
he's famous for a top speed run of 179.9mph (not with this engine)
it was the first zetec turbo that ian howell (fiesta frenzy/area six) made for a customer
2.1 16v zetec turbo
fiesta turbo OFAB managment with loom (including custom Ahmed Bayjoo map)
Ahmed bayjoo Injectors
Ported and Polished IH spec cylinder head
IH spec custom camshafts
forged pistons
Rover M16 Inlet manifold (rare) (not the inferior T16 manifold) which has been extended
Escort RST T3 Exhaust manifold
picture below, as seen in pauls engine bay
since then it was sold to someone else who did'nt end up using it
but now its my turn
so basically i've been in contact with ian howell,
discussed options and prices,
arranged for him to inspect/assess my engine then we will go from there.
we'll be aiming for a genuine 300bhp
