How much are these and are they straight forward, off comes the bottom cvh, and on goes the zetec?

How much bhp you looking at ?

 

 

 

Check on this site: http://www.jimhearne.co.uk/zvh.htm

 

Heres another site to check out

www.edenperformance.co.uk

 

my 2.0 zvh has got 218 bhp at 13/14 psi on ke-jet injection..
expect a lot more bhp with management
you need to get a water pump plate so to fit the cvh water pump,
also the o/s engine mount needs to be slighty modded so the fixing bolt holes lign up correctly,think it just 1 hole that reqs modding..
c/head also has been modified to fit..
also get a 1.8 zetec sump and adaptor plate..

 

cool

 

ive got a 1.8 zvh in mine running 14psi with a scorpion exhaust and a k+n with no other mods and got 147 @ the wheels which is around 180 at the flywheel (ish)

 

paddy was that your s1 in this months fast ford along side chips and nathans cossie etc etc??

 

Its just as easy and cheap to build a zetec turbo with or without ke jet

 

can u run a full zetec on the ke jet system??

 

Do you mean a 16v Zetec turbo???

If yes it is possible but the main prob is fitting a dizzy to the Zetec, iam gonna use FRST management on my 2.1l 16v Zetec turbo

 

what needs doin to the head??

easy for a simple machine shop??

 

as above, might be an interesting alternative

 

What do you mean, nothing much if your planning on a 16v Zetec Turbo, could get it gas flowed, other than that it will need the studs for what ever manifolds you are gonna use drilling, easy stuff for any machine shop

 

i meant for zvh

 

ok seems head is fine for zvh, only issue i can see bar buyin the bits (whick im now sortin) is using a 1.8 bottom end and the compression being right

ne1 know if its ok? cant go changing pistons cos its gonna get pricy then and i just want to do it as a cheap option

cheers

 

compression ratio is way to hight for a turbo to run any serious boost, low comp pistons is they proper way to do things, other wise a decompression plate from fridey (spelling) enginering would do the job.

 

Go to this site for decompression plates. Done 500 miles so far on my RS with one of these on and not had any problems (touch wood). Good bloke to talk to.

do they need to be bonded to the block or sumthin mate(s)?

i would only want a bar of boost neways really, would std 1.8 handle that or deffo de-comp the way to go?


im being real tight on fittin the lump cos i have enuff other bits to spunk money on and want to pay out as little as poss

Yep thats who i ment, they dont need to be bonded to the block, they are just a thicker headgasket.

 

a reusable 1 too?

 

Theres a big company review in Preformance Ford this month, they look like a proper company there to help ya out
