Hi anyone about this engine?
Its fitted to the last ford scorpios and comes in 2.0 and 2.3

It doesn't look Zetec or Duratec

Is it the same as fitted to the mk5 escort RS2000?

Just curious

Oioi there

i'm currently building a locost and using the Mk5 RS2000 engine with a turbocharged twist have a glance at my site, the link is below

the scorpio lump is similar, but yet totally differant in 2.3 form, and the zetec is totally differnat again.

Hi Paul

Thanks for the reply, i was just wondering as the RS2000 is 150 bhp, might be better than using a 8v DOHC from a sierra

yup - they are the same bottom end

the extra 25bhp is noticeable definately.

have a look on rs2000-16v.com - there are a few rs2k engine on there complete for 400 quid
