A few pictures of the almost finished project.
About time I got some of it on her me thinks

Hope you enjoy

We are awaiting the charge air carrier pipe that goes over the rocker to come back from the engineers so we can tap in the water injection jet, so thats one thing thats missing from the photos, got a bog standard one on there at mo but hopefully real soon we'll have the nice blinging shinney one back

I like to clean

[davS2]

looks mint mate
just one thing is your bonnet ok without bonnet pins witht the lifters
just heard a few stories of bonnets flying open without the pins

[zetec-turbo]

Cheers peps

Bonnet seems fine matey, have got a set of pins here at home but jsut aint fitted them as it seems secure to me, done 1.5k miles in it with runs up and down the dual carrage ways at errr......good speeds *cough Cough* and all's been well.

[davS2]

cheers mate
quite fancy getting the bonnet blocks for my car aswell as gets a bit hot under there sometimes was just a bit unsure without the pins.does look minted tho

[BLaCk SeRiEs 1]

i heard about bonnets flying up 2!!

[pigeonrst]

happend to me wi ma s1, mingin at the time, then u hav to fix the damage!!!

[Jano_OddKidd]

could be that time soon mate

[rs_daz]

Looking good what sort of bhp are you hoping for

[zetec-turbo]

Well with this engine it had 269.5bhp, BUT that was with a few problems with the engine and other things that was restricting us with the power.......i.e. the compression of the pistons that was supplied to me by Burtons was wwwaaaaayyyyyyyyy to much ie 10:1 and also had an air leak in the Intercooler that was far from helping with things

So anything over 300bhp will be nice

[BLaCk SeRiEs 1]

u no your getting more then that

[rye]

Any more news on this car this is one pukka engine mate, more news more pics! My mate got sent the wrong pistons aswell from burton.

[zetec-turbo]

Am just about to update a few pics on the thread about my new engine

Have a look there for updates

My advise to anyone wanting pistons for a ZT in future would be to get them straight from the U.S. they are chearper and excellent pistons, ie JE, Arias etc. Avoid Accralite and Burtons
