A ST170 one would never let you down and not bad for 30 quid
They have been used by zetec tuners and have been tested to well over 400bhp

Awesome job! I love your car <3 How much power you have planned to take from tha Zetec?
I wish to get my own mk4 Escort to such a condition like this! I've dreamed about 1,8 zetec turbo on it, but maybe 1,6 cvh with turbo will be my choice.

I had the Rocker cover blasted a few weeks back, then dropped it off to be painted in body colour by Ade
faultless work again
. . . Engine builder wants to make a few finishing touches to it, abit of colour in the markings followed by facing and a quick polish up I think

Theres something strangely cool about these. I used to hate them but now I kinda prefer them to the 'sportier' 3 door escort.
Either I'm going daft with age or its a rarity thing I guess...??
Congrats on getting the 'look' 100% spot on. So many people over-cook it. 2 simple colours, the silver and the black. Its perfect you need not add or take anything away.
