Evening all,
I have been on the forum a while but yet to post as usually a regular on ZSOC but as i believe i have most of the knowledge i need on the Mk4/5 to rebuild and maintain my mk4 it was about time i became more active in regards to my Mk3.
I have 2 Mk3 fiestas one which is a 1993 "K" Mk3 1.1 8v and a 1995 "M" Mk3.5 1.6 16v Zetec.
The plan is to make a 2.0 Mk3 Zetec out of the 2. I know the Zetec is the correct looms to run a Mondeo 2.0 zebec lump but after reading many threads i found there isn't a massive amount of information to go on and a lot of it is basically winging it.
For example i have read that the floor pans between the 3 and the 3.5 are different all the rest i found here

But no mention of the engine mounts my cars are geographically 30miles apart and worse still 45mins drive so I'm trying to gain as much knowledge from home as i can.
So i know i need:
2.0 Mondeo Zetec Silvertop
Desk/Dewy/Deep ECU - Very hard to find
New 1.6 water pump as they spin a different way.
130 spec inlet so its not restricted by the 1.6 inlet although would run
After that i am at a loss. I know i can run nearly all my 1.6 zetec auxiliaries to get it running as it should.
Any input would be greatly welcomed. Pics below of the 2 cars. Im going to remove all the rot and paint it so new rear arches sills and wings. Add some XR2i/RST Bumpers and skirts and she will be some where near where i want after the engine is fitted.
