This is getting asked a lot atm..

Mine was like this..

1.8 Escort Engine £200
Bike carbs £35
Megajolt £95
1.8 Mondeo Clutch £20 (ebay)
Inlet manifold £0.00, made it myself
2.0L cams £30
DOHC Starter motor £10

You need the Edis and coil pack, VR sensor (all came with my engine) and a different alternator bracket.

Easiest is a 1.8 from an Escort, no sump chopping mods etc. Water pump goes the right way, flywheel is much thinner/lighter than a 2L one.
Clutch is from a 1.8 Mondeo with a Capri release bearing.

The above gave me 155bhp (flywheel) on the rollers.
