Doctor Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Matt W is selling a CSR exhaust (presumably from 2.3) and incidentally a friend of mine is looking for one for his 2009/2010 2.0 Duratec EU4 LHD car. Does anybody have an idea if it will fit?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadership Team Shortshift Posted June 30, 2020 Leadership Team Share Posted June 30, 2020 Igor - I think the engine may be in a slightly different position, fore and aft as well as vertically, comparing a CSR to an SV. They use different bellhousings (assuming the CSR was a dry sump car) and the 2.3 engine in the CSR is taller so, to fit below the bonnet, is mounted a tad lower (think crank height above ground) than on an SV.Easy to check, though, using some fixed point on the engine and measuring back to the exhaust mounting point just below the driver's RH buttock (assuming RHD) on the outside of the car, and vertically with reference to the lower chassis rails or something like that?James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Hi James,I think the biggest question mark are the primaries, the rest can be adjusted.As my first post reads it is 2009/2010 2.0 Duratec EU4 LHD Roadsport SV. The 2.3 was lower in order to fit under the bonnet.Will figure out some measurements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7 wonders of the world Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 probably worth a call to Chessman who make them and ask them to confirm on the drawings....?The bellhousing although different in appearence will be dimensional the same since its based around the same V6 first motion shaft, so its the long version as opposed to the Raceline short option.Engine height and the effect on sideskins would be the key i think.

Doctor Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 Spoken to them, it is going to be a bit of a detective work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 Anybody any idea about this?I have a feel the primaries will be the key to this - and their clearance from the chassis. Any useful measurements to take?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
