the 1.8 zetec and 2.0l zetec water pumps turn in opposite directions. I drilled out the shaft from a 2.0l and fitted it to a 1.8 pump. (or visa versa)

Escort and Fiesta silvertops share the same type, correct for rotating the same way as the engine. Mondeo silvertops pump rotates the wrong way but can be swapped for a Escort/Fiesta type. Blacktops (fiesta, with plastic cover, and duratech branded st170 engines) have only one pump type, which needs an idler, or the impeller (and pulley) changing.

Unless I am mistaken you have a silver-top there, with the aluminium camshaft cover.

Interesting. Have you done this? If this is the case I'm'm surprised the likes of IK engineering have 'tooled up' to make there own reverse direction impeller.

And with regards to pulley - yes. But it doesn't spin it the right way round still for the reasons you yourself described above, so we machined the block for the Silver Top set up instead. If I was running a lower spec/less expensive engine I would just use it like that anyway as I've heard of people doing this with no issues.

Whats going on with the rocker cover, are those 'struts' welded to it? Presumably thats also a silvertop cover further adding to the confusion?

I guess your right, I had forgotten about the two center cover bolts, but it is an ali cover not a plastic blacktop one.
Either way, certainly sounds like XRT_si knows what he is talking about which is a good thing given the size of that blower!
