Thats pure parts only mate, since I spent 3years researching it all and working out formyself what works best, and what I wanted from this engine. Also the fact I have been employed as both an Engine Builder and a Dyno Operator in the recent past means it was easy enough...didnt have to pay anyone to build it

Chummer.....i can supply a plate that allows fitment of the CVH exhuast manifold to the zetec head. Inlet manifold does not bolt straight on no.....reqires a lot fo work!

Most poeple use the Ford CVH EFI manifold on the zetecs...

Hi Mate, yes I can

The inlet plate is 8mm stainless steel and has the ports, and zetec bolt pattern cutout already, you will need to drill and tap into it to fit your Rover manifold (ie, for the bolts).....as there are two different rover bolt patterns! So its easier for you to fit it yourself.

Ill enquire on prices, but probably about Ł50+postage for that one, and the exhaust manifold ones are Ł80+postage iirc

It can do mate, youll need adapter plates though as its not a direct fit.

Greens (Bosch 803s) will fit in it fine tho!

The only thing you need to go drag racing at the famous Santa Pod Raceway is a valid UK driving licence, Ł10 for admission and a Ł15 signing-on fee. You'll be entitled to unlimited runs or as many as your nerves will allow! After each run you'll receive a personal performance print-out showing your reaction times to the start lights, ź mile and 1/8 mile times, 0-100mph and top speed. If you really get hooked you could then apply for a competition licence and enter a street class at a proper race meeting because, don't forget, the RWYB days are how most of the professional racers get started.
