hi has any one fitted a 1800 zetec from Escort/fiesta in to a 7 without doing to many mods to the inlet camber? and using the original wiring ECU etc?
thanks

If anyone answers yes to this, it will be the way I am going.

The general opinion is the injection side of things is too large. Bum.

I use the original ECU, but i have made a new plenum chamber.

It works fine

I'll be putting in a 1994 2 litre zetec in my Indy and will be using Kawazaki ZX9R carbs on a home made inlet manifold. To get the engine working i will be using the coil pack, edis4, crank sensor and probably the megajolt to get it running.

Seeing as how exaust are so expensive i'm looking to use the orig exhaust manifold with a custom pipe to a rear can. Not sure if this method will work but it's worth looking into!

I have used a 1.8 Zetec in my Tiger Cat with 2.0l cams and home made throttle bodies from a pair of 40 Webers. Rescued attachment Picture 001.jpg
