Hi,

Iv got a 1.8 with full exhaust/induction and cams/pulleys. I mite be able to get hold of a 2.0 focus engine. Im interested in this as it gives higher std bhp and also my cams will work better in this engine so can get better gains overall.

What i want to know is will it just be a matter of getting the engine or will i need any other parts? loom, ecu etc. Will the 1.8 gearbox be ok to use and by keeping 1.8 gearbox will it help improve acceleration.

Or would just swapping the bottom end be better option.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Matt

 

gearbox unless you stick 1.8 flywheel on 2.0l and think just ecu.

 

So can i use the 1.8 flywheel and gearbox? So just engine and ecu will be needed for swap?

defo fit 1.8flywheel to the 2.0l engine and use the 1.8box
and 80%sure just ecu

 

cheers m8 will price up a good 2.0 engine, shud help with acceleration using the 1.8 gearbox

wot if i just got a 2.0 bottom end would that work ok with the 1.8 head and the kent cams that designed for 2.0? jus seen new one on ebay, that way wud no condition of bottom end

Bin told sumwhere that the 1.8 ecu shud be ok, but was plannin on custom map anyway

Thanks
