the engine i,m using is from my donor & according to the westfield data it has 103bhp, but plans are for a 2ltr zetec once on the road with hopefully approx 160bhp, with car weight at approx 530kgs will give in the region of 300bhp per ton

brake power is not what you should look at when choosing an engine, the most important would be the engines level of torque as this is what drives the vehicle
