When doing a zetec turbo the common recommendation is to put a standard zetec cylinder head onto a st170 engine block. This is all well and good but I have not seen the cylinder heads being sold separately meaning you have to buy the whole engine, price seems to be around £200 with collection or shipping on top.
Looking on eBay you could buy the whole car for similar money so that is what I have done, collected today a 2002 focus saloon bought for the grand sum of £257 plus £23 for collection so a total of £280
First thing to do is remove any unwanted metal and take it to the scrap man to recoup some of the cost
