Cvh block/zetec head
Anyone ever done this?
Currently acquiring an xr2 ill use as a track car as my rs1600 i planned originally to use on track will be too good to track when done.
Anyway long story short don't like the way an zvh drives fuckall then loads of torque then change gear; so
have a forged 1.6 cvh bottom end available at decent money
no oil pump issues like a full zetec
solid lifters as standard so revving no issue on a blacktop/no £2k cvh wild headwork needed impossible to find roller rockers etc.
can use focus rs exhaust man
has anyone done this? Any obvious issues I may have missed, had a search but hardly anything came up apart from a pisstake thread on what to call one.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
The Zetec head requires additional oil drain back holes (the ones we plug on a zetec block)
using a cvh block with a zetec head will not work - unless some very creative (expensive) block modifications done.
