that will help.
Cheers Stu

 

is it safe enough to leave the crank the way it is? for a 240 bhp zetec turbo?

also any1 know what standard erst shafts are capeable of?

also would any 1 know if the windows and rubbers are the same in the mk3 and mk4 escorts please???

 

bn told the standard crank can take 500 bhp, has anyone else heard this?

 

It's true..

 

is the focus st 170 water pump a direct re-placement on my silvertop??

will a focus rs clutch work on rs1800 flywheel and s1 box?? if not any suggestion to run rs clutch??

is focus rs spark plugs exact same as normal zetec ones??

 

no the st170 waterpump is from the black top engine and the "hole" is much smaller than an earlier silver top? Also will still spin the wrong way unless you have another pulley setup in there

 

cheers for the reply so does the water pump have to be uprated ?

 

has anyone heard of using nissan pulsar pistons in a zetec???

does it work??

 

It may be a good idea to approach an experience zetec turbo engine builder.. your head is full of internet rubbish!

 

best advice i've heard

 

also if ur puttin a full zetec in then surely it would be as easy to use the zetec water pump, iirc if using a 2000cc you need the 1800cc pump
