Hi and thankyou for taking the time to read this thread and for all your responses (if any).
I am new to Passion Ford and thought it would be the perfect place to get the advice and help I need to help me get through this project quicker and easier.
I have a mk 1 1.8 focus that used to be the girlfriends everyday car until it started smoking quite bad and rattling from the cams around cylinder 1. Now I've bought her a new car I've decided to convert the focus into a van so it stands out and would be great to advertise on for the garage business I own.
First thing I need to do is get it running properly, but I don't want to just rebuild the 1.8 that's in there, I want more power!!!! I was thinking of getting it bored out but then I was also thinking 'would it be easier to just get a completely different engine to drop in there?'

Please help
