So Im finally putting this motor in the car after refurbing the chassis and rebuilding the rear suspension after refurb. What a PITA job..

I am hoping to get some help with a few questions and check for anything that needs doing before I start building it back up .




This torx (or allen) bolt here? anyone know what its for lol. I was thinking of using it for a breather and block off the one on the exhaust manifold side.

What have others done for breather? I think it could work from the exhaust manifold side but its going to be a bit hot round there...
I was planning, to use the original one, go to an oil catch can, then cam cover breather to seperator also, then I believe I need to link that back to the intercooler pipework from the catch can?

















So the questions!! Anyone see anything I am missing except the obvious?
The exhaust manifold is just perched there on the studs atm, and of course engine mount etc to go on, and ancilleries like alternator.

Is the water pump the right one? THis is a silvertop 2 litre so I think it needs the 1.8 zetec water pump that spins the right way?

WHere is the best place to take turbo oil feed? is it from a t piece on the oil pressure switch? anyone got any pictures of their setup


Last off, that turbo seems bigger than I rememberd lol. Its a TO4b, should be more than enough for my goal of 400 ponies. just hope the engine and tubular fit in the mid engine bay, its going to be tight.... so I may need a different manifold if it comes to it. (a cast one or something)

Any other booboos or suggestions please let me know!! cheers


Also, anyone got a picture of the pipework to the thermostat housing? Im guessing thats what that is on the top side?
