I too have the 1.8 CVH engine from a complete donor I had, makes for an easy swap to Zetec later on ( theres a few parts from the CVH engine you,d need when installing a Zetec & it also has exhaust exit on same side, saves having holes in both side panels.

You won,t need the petrol tank ( too big ) but maybe keep the sender if you intend making your own tank, if you get a CVH engined donor the fuel pump is part of the engine.

Won,t need the fan or Rad...again too big

Most folk get a new propshaft made to measure, tho keeping the donor shaft might raise a few £,s to sell it on.

The only thing I can think of that you haven,t mentioned about keeping is the Speedo cable.

Best wishes for your build

cheers
