Theres no such thing as a 105 or 130 bhp 1.8 zetec? your just confusing me even more here the only 130bhp engined escort is the xr3 aint it, and its not a zetec motor either

the 1.8 zetec in a mondeo is 115hp, the zetec 130hp was in some ghia Si escorts and i think things like gti's and the like, the 130hp is popular or was with kit car builders for some reason, i thought th 90ps was a 1.6, but anyway the 1.8 is avalible in 105,115 and 130hp models in escorts and mondeos, but you can't turn a low power engine into the 130 without a lot of work,

AFAIK the escorts are silver tops and the focus are black tops.

The silver top 1.8 is 105/115/130 with different management, intake and cams and the 1.6 is 90/105(?)

No idea about the black tops, but I thought the 90ps focus was a 1.4?

Just stick 130 or 2lt cams into a 105 or 115 engine, along with the ecu and you get the 130.

yep as said,

si's came in 105/115
lx's gti's 115
cab si's 130 (+ mtx75 box)

in the mk6 range

there were ghia si's in the mk5 which were 105/130. The 130's had mtx75 boxes, rear discs, and larger front brakes (the same as the rs2k).

and they were all silvertops
