Why would anyone bother with a Zetec turbo lump?

ok, i chose a ZT over YB cos:

my 3dr is a 1.6gl, so no point putting a cossie lump in just cos..
how many sierras you lot seen with a zetec in? or a zetec turbo??

0 - exactly
I've seen one


Do you know or can you find out what engine mounts have been used in this photo? Are they 1800 cvh mounts?

On a friends build we are using custom mounts but it would be nice to know for the future. Plenty of clean saffs out ther that would make quite nice dailly drivers if you could replace the 1800 cvh with a more powerful modern engine.

One advantage of the Zetec engine that no one has mentioned yet is that it is considerably shorter than an YB and therefore can be mounted further back in the engine bay, improving weight distribution and moving its centre of gravity closer to the ideal.
