Im planning to run my 2.1 Zetec16v Turbo on fiesta efi ofab mangment i was just wondering which alternator should
i be useing my orignal one off my S1 or a later mondeo/escort efi one?

Cheers

the one off your s1 should be fine with the bracket thats on your engine

 

What bracket are you going to run on the engine?

 

I aint 100% sure i think its a 1.8 sierra one.

I bought the engine off Red16 so i will stick with the S1 one as its not that old.

 

Ah ok fair do's. The reason i asked was because if you were using a Series 2 bracket the Series 1 alternator won't fit.

Either should see you through fine, the later 70A one would be preferable though, but i run a 55A on my cabby with the biggest battery you could ever hope to fit in the tray and its fine

 

SafeChav Top stuff dude i will maybe give you a shout back if i come unstuck converting my thing to Efi Ofab

 

Oh joy i await the day

 

 

i think its a mk3 bracket, could you post a pic up of your mk3 bracket so s1kid can double check?

 

Unfortunately not mate, how do you think i learnt about it

The series 2 bracket has the adjuster arm bolted to it, the earlier arms bolt higher up the block, so if you have a MK4 water pump you have a bit of a problem

 

How about you post up a picture of the bracket you have and i can I.D it for you

 

The mk3 alternator sits much higher than in the mk4.

 

The alternators are different aswell though

 

im just trying to help the lad i dont have the engine

 

Where in that response does it say "you" is "Red16"
