Very cool mate.

What sort of time are you aiming for?

Those 9" axles soak up a lot of power through resistance I hear.

9 sec escort , his fiesta was 9 sec car this will be in the 7 iam sure of that. it will be running around 800bhp which from a zetec is mental , this is on another level and hopefully can show us the way on how to turbo a zetec
the cylinder head is one of the first zetec head casting and was purley for development work so find one is rarer than rocking horse shit and maybe even rarer than the esslinger custom build drag racing head that was used on shaun carlsons 7 sec 1000bhp zetec turbo engine .
i will wish you all the best with the build and keep up the amazing work

cheers paul

Flow, port size at a guess, maybe on par for example with an EVO 6/7/8 head.
