ST170 is a Blacktop mate, obviously it has VVT which people don't like to use with turboing, hence using a standard Blacktop. Will bolt straight on.

The ST170 head is miles better tho, you're better of mapping the vvt or removing it and blanking the oilways etc
AustinW will tell you all about using an St170 head on a ZT

Not entirely true, but the head does bolt on nicely. The block, rods and pistons are all different to a UK blacktop. not sure on the rest of the bits though.
Also, last time i checked, the 1.8mm gaskets were on back order at ford
Next best thing is probably a 4 layer from an st170 (don't bother with payen though, as they only list a 3 layer for st170's)
