Catalytic converters?

[Drumster]

If I put a Zetec in my 7 will I need a cat for:

 

a. MOT and/or

 

b. Sprinting regs

 

i.e. is it the age of the car (1993) or the type of engine that dictates these matters

Hi Chris - you won't need a cat for yours.

For MOT, if the car is kit built and pre August 1998 then no cat required. If not kit built then it depends on the engine that was originally fitted and since yours was a X-flow then no cat needed. Putting a newer engine in doesn't change that.

For sprinting only post 2000 cars require a cat.
