AMMO Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I have decided that life is too short to wait until the winter of 2004 to do my Duratec conversion. To fund the upgrade I have to sell my complete Zetec installation. I set out to build an 1800 cc / 190 bhp engine with certain characteristics. Having achieved this I now want a new project. The specification is as follows: 1800 Zetec with Mahle 0.5 mm oversize pistons 11:1 compression ratio (runs on 95 octane fuel) Dyno tested at 187 bhp Ported big valve head with Raceco 33 / 29 mm oversize valves Flowbench tested Matched inlet manifold Kent FZ2001 262 degree camshafts Kent valve springs ARP rod bolts Steel flywheel Heavy duty clutch Dynamically balanced Aluminium underdriven crank pulley 45 mm Weber throttle bodies Jenvey bellmouths Pipercross filters Weber adjustable fuel pressure regulator MBE ECU and loom, Weber Pico 330 cc injectors Baffled sump Price to include: Engine mounts Aluminium bellhousing Alternator and brackets Starter motor Exhaust system with Raceco titanium silencer. Cooling system with custom-made swirl pot, hoses etc. Spare throttle cable Spare alternator belt This is everything you need apart from a high-pressure pump / injection fuel tank. The engine has only done around 5,000 miles since it was built. The new cost of all the components easily in excess of £5,000.00. This does not include the labour to build the engine, port the head, etc. I am looking for offers in the region of £3,300.00. The car goes like stink. It has 340 bhp per ton. Anybody interested is welcome to come and try the car first. It is coming off the road at the end of November. AMMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMO Posted November 2, 2003 Author Share Posted November 2, 2003 If anybody wants to have a chat about this my 'phone numbers are 01394 383499 / 07860 494064. I'll also be taking the car to Brands on Monday November 10th if someone wants to have a ride there. This will be my last trackday of the year and a good chance for a potential buyer to see what my little gem is capable of. AMMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
