Hi everyone. Does anyone know of a good machine shop around Midlands area so I can get my N/A zetec block bored to 2.1 and get the oil feed and oil return put on. Any help much appreciated.
You could but I am not a fan of a chunk of brass hanging out of the block. I copy what ford did on the Rs. There is another port behind the low oil switch. It’s the same 1/8npt.
The Rs does have a differant casting for the sump there is an unused bung in the same place that can be drilled and tapped for either a barbed spure or an An fitting.
for the oil return I’ve done several. The one in the photo is a steel jic hydraulic fitting. Ive also done them with ali An10 fittings and a plain barbed spure. The last is the cheapest and was the least hassle.
I will buddy. I'm forging mine straight away. I'm a firm believer in do it right 1st time. I'm zvh'ing my escort s2 few things need doing before putting her back together
