Hi I'm steve from cambs. I have been a member for a while but never introduced myself. I own a 89 saph cos with about 380bhp. I'm thinking of building a track car using the mk2 mondeo with the 4x4 running gear. Will a two liter zetec bolt onto this gearbox and what sort of power can it handle? As I'm currentley building a 400bhp silvertop zetec. Cheers steve-o

 

dont think the 4 wheel drive system in the mondeo would handle 400 bhp think it would end in tears first time you used it hard, heard that they are shit.

 

I thought as much. Can the gearbox be built to handle 400bhp? Will it bolt onto the zetec?

 

gear box probably could but not sure about the transfer box.

 

they came with a zetec so shouldnt see why not

 

Sounds like a good project mate.

 

Didn't the mk1 4x4 mondeos use a similar set up as the rs2000 4x4s? Fine for standard power but tend to shit themselves when you up it a bit!
