will a st170 engine fit in to a mk3 fiesta with a bc gearbox
im just enquireing for a friend to see if anyone knows if a st170 engine will fit in a mk3 fiesta
we have 4-2-1 manifold and omex600 and throttle boddies and cams/ported head 11.5:1 C/R planned for the conversion and hoping that it will produce 230 bhp
is it the same as fitting a zetec where you just cut and shut the top engine mount?
i have managed to fit a black top in to a mk3 using the cvh engine mount but never got to see a focus st170 engine in the flesh to work it out for my self
any advice about this would be verry helpful
cheers
