Chris use the cosworth engine as a modle. b/c i think coswoth made a 220 hp 2.0 block. im going to shoot for 250hp by useing the cosworth engine like a modle.

ive looked at it a couple of times... specially on belt routing... i wanna know how they mounted the alt on the front and where they got their tensioner from at the top where the PS pump is at.

n/m found the kit on their site:

Still wondering about the FR head though, guess so few people have gotten that far mods wise =/

That's from a ebay auction but it says direct from ford and no cams so I'
m assuming it doesn't come with cams installed.

Its ok man. Well all forgive you.[thumb]

See, the "accepts stock valvetrain" and "Valves, springs and retainers installed" is where Im concerned now. It comes with valvetrain, but is it stock? If it is upgraded what else would be needed, Im assuming drop in your choice of cams and go?
lets keep this going![thumb]
