Oh well i guess mines the oposite end of the scale
i had a std 1.6 cvh but it snapped a ring pulling out of my street (not booting in either )
so i had to get my only mode of transport going soon as .................... so i got a 1.8 zetec out of a skip which had BAD piston slap and converted it to zvh
slapped it in and off i went then i built a good one and thought i'll blow the one up in the car 1st just to see what its capable of and guess what its still there running 180 bhp with a stg 1 chip in and i give it death everywhere i go boot it from cold the works and it still comes back for more its still in there now 9 months on with no signs of failing just yet need more boost to blow it up hopefully fitting a stg 2 ecu soon so thats good for 18psi i hope and if it still wont blow its coming out i cant wait anymore ........................ 2.1 here i come
