They are rated by Ford at 195BHP and 203ft/lb torque, this is with all the gubbins fitted (cats/air con/steering pumps fitted).I have been informed however that the figure is more like 205BHP by AES engines who have tested and modified many of these

I have heard from various sources that this engine will produce around 220+BHP with a decent exhaust system and the gubbins removed

Will have to wait and see!


Spivvy do you have any more pictures of the engine as the one in the silver car looks to be mounted quite far forward?



This is mine waiting to go in,



Really must get on with it!

Cheers
