Don't forget you need to be able to prove your engine's age to qualify for a non-cat IVA emmissions test, which may be difficult to prove with the pinto as it has already be transplanted once.

If you intend doing swap post IVA anyway, a CVH may be an easier engine to source.

Sorry, I know bugger all about Zetecs.
I'm not too worried about starting the motor as I would probably freshen it up anyway.

I may not be able to prove identity but should imagine that so long as the number is legible I can prove the age. Hopefully.

I really did see me end up with a 2L zetec eventually so am still undecided.
