So a grand will prob get you a silly quick 280bhp zetec. Great fun and cheap as.
If you were not confident on doing certain jobs (drilling the block or welding etc) then you could always just drop into a local garage or engineering firm and ask them to do it as a little side job.
When i said pistons and rods it was in reply to him building a zetec turbo not budget zt! Also £400 for engine is rather steap, head £75 st170 block complete £150
