Standard Zetec block does 800+bhp no problem so the sky is the limit.
And yep, if it's WRC, then too much work to get it to work.
Not spoke to ian for a while so I wouldn't know but he must be able to get them made in a few weeks .
As Iam genuinely interested who do you know that had 800 bhp out of a zetec apart from szybk drag car and I think he used a cgi block. Any pictures or spec would be great. I will be planning and speccing it with ian to build mine to 650 bhp if we can at a decent boost level ( 30/35psi max ). I don't want to push loads of boost through the engine and would like it to be reliable as possible.
As for my old specked engine it did 522bhp and 395lbs at 30psi
Standard silver top block
1 mm overbore 2.1 litres
Standard genuine ford oil pump
Standard front pulley
Rs 1800 water pump
Block machined for extra breather ports x2
Standard ford head bolts

1 mm oversized valves
Custom cam

Double valve springs

X4 650cc Siemens injectors
T61 turbonetics turbo
Tial 44 mm wastegate
My own tubular unequal length exhaust manifold

New spec will include
a new dry sump system
Maybe new arrows rods
Jenvey turbo plenum 70 mm
Large bell mouth billet trumpets inside plenum
Billet throttle body adaptor plate
X4 450cc injectors on top of 650cc injectors
New equal length tubular exhaust manifold to my design
Probably a Borg warner efr turbo
Plug on coils
engine block modded for m12 studs with large clamping washers
Maybe going wire rung block with custom head gasket
Cylinder head machined out for larger followers

Hoping for 650 bhp at 30 psi no more than 35 psi .
Hope this helps
