Default Will Mk1 FRS turbo bits fit Silvertop Zetec?

Hi, I need advice and for someone to confirm if the Mk1 FRS turbo parts like Manifold, intercooler and all the turbo parts will fit a Silvertop 2.0 Zetec? This is for my ZT conversion. I know its been done to the 2.0 Blacktop unit, Ideally I would just buy a FRS lump and bolt my turbo parts to that as factory but they are a bit deer. Will I have to drop a Blacktop in there instead?

I have pretty much everything ready for the conversion such as decomp plates, Management and downpipe ect.

Cheers.

The manifolds, turbo, inj etc will all fit no problem. Straight swap, I have them on a silvertop in a mk3 fiesta.

I am sure you will need to fit a 2 part sump from the blacktop to use the standard FRS downpipe but you may need to confirm that.

The intercooler/charge cooler setup may fit depends on what car it is going into?probably better to upgrade to a proper air to air intercooler and custom pipes etc.

Thanks for the quick reply, well I have the Milltek FRS downpipe, which will need a little fabbing to fit properly, all of the FRS parts that I have came from a Mondeo Mk2 project with the 2.0 Blacktop unit, it will be going into My Mk1 Mondeo with the Silvertop unit, so almost like for like, I am looking to use the Fez RS1800 HO inlet. I have a decat too but that will be fitted just before the remap.

I have two injection rails with injectors from the FRS (one spare) and hope its not to much of a pita to fit?
