What is the distance from the back of the inlet manifold to the head buddy?

I love this car, its looking awesome so far!

 

Not sure, will measure it next time im up at the car, u looking to fit a st170 inlet to ur zetec?

 

great project mate, looks st lump looks snug in there

 

Yeah its a good fit apart from the inlet being close to the bulkhead...

 

Well will be picking it up on saturday from sitech racing, and taking it for a spin to see what its like and will post up some pics...... and willl be going to the next knockhill track night to see how it performes......

 

hi mate good work.

what flywheel and clutch you use and modify.


bet you cant wait to thrash the mother

 

looking good, get some more pix up

 

1.8 zetec 105bhp flywheel and rst 4-padel clutch, just bolts straight on....easy peezy!

yeah will be great to finaly take it for a spin........

 

Ade, will get more pics this wk-end when i pick it up at si`s......
You`d be better takin the pics as i`m no good wi a camera lol

 

great project

 

Little up-date... spoke to si and he`s alomost finished mapping, little few tweeks and it`ll be ready for collection!!!

 

Well just back from a road trip to pick up my car, its raining and not realy good for going for a drive or pics... But seems to rev well, but not much mid-range torque but si will sort this with a bit more mapping in the future.....

 

look forward to seeing some pix

 

Just hope the pics are up to ur standards ade.....
will be up at knockhill tomorrow with it, and if its a nice day al get some good pics!

 

seen this today was at the top of ma street lookin good

 

Great project

 

Cool car mate, nice little project!

 

very kool car looks very nice good work

 

Well didnt make it to knockhill today, burst a water hose not far from my house so turned back, and when trying to start it, it was spitting back and flames were coming out of the inlet at the seem where it joins together, which has obviously separated when back-firing. So will be repairing that tomorrow and re-fitting inlet. But looks like the ign timing is wrong, so that will have to be looked at..............

 

well little up-date, takin it back to simon on saturday to get the vvt working to help with mid-range torque and a little map tweeking.....
And also got my quick-rack and poly bushes, so fitted the rack last nite and i`ll wait till i get my s1 anti-roll bar to fit the rest.... sum pics for uze....





And how it sits the now....

 

looks sweet as fook mate

 

What management are you using? i'm considering this conversion for my mk3 but i was going to just use the std ford loom and ecu?

 

I`m using Gotech MFI PRO, because using the standard loom and ecu is alot of hassle, been told it uses a black-oak system where it needs the whole car loom to work properly, otherwise it will just give you lots of fault codes and wont run.....

Check out the link below, thats where i got mine supplied and fitted.

 

Well its almost finished mapping, spoke to si and says vvt is working and kicking in at 5k and pulls well and cold-start map has had a tweek aswel, picking up fri lunch time!!!!
Then thats just the begining of more mods.....induction piping, front suspension, gearlinkage, poss change of g-box etc.....

 

Well had it bk for a few days now and bn out n bout and the vvt is mental, what a diff it makes when it hits 5k and pulls all the way to 8k!
Just a little pic of the bay with new piping, pressure reg and temp sender...

 

Just bn out and moved my s1 into another garage, so took some pics while they were both out.......







Hope u like.......

 

bloody spot on that is , well done

 

Me like very much!

some guys are really that lucky to own two of those nice cars

 

Looks very nice mate
