I have finally got the engine back in the cooling pipes finished and the throttle bodies trial fitted - All going together nicely.

Having recently removed the engine to insert a bolt into the bell housing to stop the lay shaft on the type 9 moving forwards, see previous
posting.

Looking very tidy! What power are you hope to achieve with the ST150 variant of the engine?
I'm hoping for around 180BHP, the engine in standard format is 150 BHP
Nice, well done.
Mine came in at 170bhp with 140bhp at the wheels, so that could achievable. Mine is straight out the donor and running on carbs.
Guys, where did you pick up your ST engines? An good sources that I may not have thought of?
Cheers
Found mine on ebay a 2007 motor with 22k on it
180 should be achievable with injection, my Mondeo Duratec (145 as standard) came in at 192:

Great, just what I was hoping for, got some nice curves there
What ECU are you using?
Both the power and torque curves came out looking nice.
Running on Microsquirt with standard injectors (in the head) - someone was enquiring about injector location on another thread.
I was asking about microsquirt earlier today, was thinking it may do the job, trigger wheels sell a kit which includes all the injector, coil and
crank sensor connectors for the Duratec.
You just use it the same as a mega squirt?
Was it a straightforward install?
Do you have a map from you roller session?
I've got ST170 injectors mounted in the head, there supposed to be good for about 197BHP so should do the jod pretty well
Looks great, very tidy
Wouldn't be in if you hadn't made up some engine mounts for me
Looking Good 
Did you use that "standard" water manifold on the back of the engine. I am trying to work out the plumbing for mine, what pipes can be
blocked off etc...
Cheers

Yes standard water manifold on rear of cylinder head, but I am planning on a heater as I will fit screen post IVA

Assume you mean BHP - for the 0280156154 I understand around 220 is the max (that is without increasing the operating fuel pressure from 3 bar).
