Im not really great at writing threads and updating them but over the bank holiday weekend i set upon fitting my 2 litre blacktop engine from my MK2 mondeo in to my MK4 fiesta.The transplant was very straight forward.I used a fiesta,escort flywheel,focus clutch and a diesel ib5 hydraulic gearbox and std drive shafts.I used all the original engine and gearbox mounts.Everything went straight in and im using a zetec one piece 4 branch manifold and down pipe.Ive gone to the lengths of using the mondeo loom with pats and using the mondeo ignition barrel so i can use the 3 button fob.I might transfer the door and boot locks over yet and my heated washer jets.The plan is to keep the car looking standard with a turbo conversion some time in the year.Im using a alloy mondeo radiator with a rad fan trimmed down to fit tempory for the time being.Jobs to finish is getting the fluids in,one water hose and sort my exhaust out as its blowing and im off.

 

Im not sure how to make my pictures bigger

 

Tinypic.com finally got a thread

 

I will try this picture lol

Looking good post some more pics!

 

I will get some just not had chance ive been working on it since friday evening lol.Im just keeping it std looking stealth like

 

How come iv only discovered this, more love being shown to a mk4

 

Cool project.So did you use the mondeo mounts or the fiesta ones.

 

Hi Glenn i used the original fiesta mounts.Its a tight fit.Im using the mondeo inlet and a rear mounted alternator.Should be driving it weekend,i can drive it now just want to sort the exhaust out first

 

These cars are great little pocket rockets.Im leaving the car completley std.

They are mate, even quicker with a engine change lol, how it going got much more to do

 

Can you explain the engine mount... is it the mondeo C mount on the fiesta chassis mount. .. pic isnt quite big enough

 

Done the cv boots tonight,fitted my last water pipe,just need to sort exhaust and air filter out and its finished.Over time i will tidy it up.

 

Its just a fiesta mount

 

Close up pics fella please

 

I will get one over the weekend for you.Its not the finished product but it does work

 

My mate is coming round to sort out my exhaust now so i should be on the road in the morning There will be a few niggley bits but i can sort that once its driving

 

Love the sleepers saw a really nice mk4 fiesta at FITP, looked completely std even had rear drums but was running 209BHP

 

Any chance of those pics please mate? I'm also interested in how you mounted the engine with just standard mounts.

Thanks, Phil.

 

.

2 litre Zetec'd Fiesta's are great, My mate has an Si 2.0l Silver top, wicked little car, and a great daily driver.

Get some more pics up mate


Ginger


.

 

Will do mate

 

Sorry mate been busy.Didnt get it finished till half ten last night.Then it was tea and bed lol

 

Ive got no speedo or rev counter so im using my gps to measure speed lol.I will sort it out over the week though.Picks up speed bloody rapid and when you want to manovere round cars the power is instant.Im yet to sort my blowing exhaust out and get a proper filter set up.The car is staying std looking and im going with a turbo charger later this year

 

Ive ordered some power steering fluid and clips to get my power steering functioning again

 

My gearbox slave cylinder has failed on the diesel gearbox so im gonna have to use the 1.2 zetec slave cylinder.

 

Hey mate,

Any joy getting those pictures?

Cheers, Phil.

 

Hi mate not had chance been really busy trying to sort the gearbox out.I promise i will get a picture over the weekend for you

 

Hi Phil sorry for the wait.

 

Stuck some 16 inch mondeo rims on the fiesta now there 195/45/16 they handle better now it just needs slaming which will be done in a few weeks and there is no rubbing at all

 

Here is a better pick of the Fiesta lol.I took it for mot today and it passed with an advisory on the bushes on the wishbones.Just bought some new wish bones and ive bought some new drop links I thought I might as well change them at the same time.Ive ordered a manual steering rack off Ebay as well so I look forward to doing that and binning the power steering altogether.Im gonna get it lowered and then look at a turbo conversion,i have most of the bits and pieces minus the turbo just not sure yet what to go for

Car looks good mate, your well ahead of me I need to get my arse in gear and get some more bits done when you going to start the turbo conversion then?

 

Im saying November time as a dead line but it will proberly be earlier than that lol.Just do bits when you can mate.I do mine in my spare time lol.Its my daily as well I start work early in the morning.As for the turbo conversion I don't want to attract loads of attention hence being a sleeper.I don't want some massive loud exhaust either,something quiet that wont strangle the car either.I don't no if a 2 inch cat back will be ok for upto 300bhp I don't plan on going anything over that its plenty for a daily runner or will I need the 2 1/2inch job.My cat back is a 1 1/2 at most or maybe an inch its the std 1.2 zetec exhaust which is restricting the power I have now lol.

Have you no more updates on yours mate?

 

What holds the door strips on?is it a sealer or double sided tape lol?if I remove the door strips will there be a open hole in the door panels?

 

I think it needs a 1.2 badge on the boot lol

 

Door strip are stuck on with double sided tape, they look better on tbh, as for the exhuast I think you be better off with a 2" cat back tbh iv done a little bit on my wrapped the exhuast and a few other bits not had alot of time , been busy buying loads on parts thou

 

Have you got any pics of your wrapped exhaust?

 

Here you go mate

 

Door strips are held on by a sealer/Glue.
Exhaust bore depends but if your going to turbo it 2,5 or 2,25 min.
2,25 is the upgrade size for the 1.6 N/A mind and you have a bigger engine and going to turbo it.
