Other than a YB what Ford lump would you use in a classic and why

Paul

 

a zetec turbo, and i know of one very local for sale!

 

1600 CVH turbo-budget friendly
Duratec 2 litre for big power
Pinto 2.1 on 48's for old school snort monster.

 

explain Dan oh btw spare lump has to see its way into saff

Paul

 

needs a slight mod to the bulkhead where the water rail is, but will drop straight in

im just fed up with it not running. and run out of money/cant afford another ecu/loom...

should get a fair few quid back in parts if i break it and would see a nice audi powered elise or turbo westfield in the garage i reckon as pretty much all parts are brand new, just fitted to the car.

 

NOOOOOOOO

But i know how u feel two steps foward with me than 4 back just getting things sorted with tina then cos of shitty ARP head studs my block has a big crack in it

You could try selling as a unfinished project then buy another toy with even more probs

 

wounder mate, i take it the head is off now then?

im sure you could make an LS2 engine fit lol

 

LOL at that cost i might as well rebuild my other lump

Thinking of something cheaper but with enough power

 

Don't break the sierra Dan

Paul, whats wrong mate ?

Steve

 

less than 3k lol

a dfv

 

Ford 302 CI (5 litre) V8

Mark

 

sell yours and give me the dosh to do it then Dan

 

might just get one for the 3dr lol, less fucking about

 

I'm sure we will get there in the end

 

Depending what the classic was,but if rwd,i would throw in a 351 cleveland with 4v heads

cheeRS stu

 

oh yes rwd

I've had to steal my cossie lump from my tina for the saff Tina is in mid resto with loads to do

Trouble is its all set up for a cossie so looks like i'm going to have to rebuild another lump for it

 

SR20

 

Biggest capacity you can afford then have fun tuning it.

 

24v cos v6,cheap good torque

 

SBC older sort, I know of a few for sale too!!
tabetha

 

I've no idea what your on about Tabs please enlighten me

Paul

 

Small Block Chevrolet, I believe

 

Ok thanks bth it has to be ford

 

24v cos.
just go and buy an entire granada cosworth for like Ł800. the engines are bullit proof ul get all the ECU , and then use the cossy brakes and the granny rear suspension and LSD and then sell the rest of the Granny off as spares and probs make urself the Ł800 back.

 

Bit of a step backwards that tho after havin a yb no need for any running gear tho have that all already

 

I may be able to get my hands on a 351, not sure if cleveland or windsor, but both very good and ford.

Interested possibly what power they produce??

 

lots if turboed
