Luckily I have stumbled upon this site, and have realised now that as the engine is post 95, it will need a Cat to pass emmisions
My initial reaction is to ebay the Zetec, and go with my first thought and buy a 2.0L Pinto. I guess I could fit a Zetec once on the road, as a winter project.
Any thought or recomendations on this??
Get yourself a scrap 1.8 CVH engine, easy to fit and when you do upgrade to a zetec after the IVA its an easy swap.
