2.0 Silvertop Zetec rebuilt in 2004 complete with build CD and certificate of authenticity from Ford for the IVA back in the day. My Westfield was built with this engine and it has covered 19k since. Standard engine on Weber 45 DCOE 152 'G' (5 Prog hole) carburettors. Weber Alpha management. AP clutch and RWD flywheel included Setup at Northampton Motorsport with power graph showing 150bhp. Drove fantastically from the moment I bought it until the moment I’ve decided to remove it in favour of an ST170 as an upgrade. Point to note - alloy RWD sump removed and used to build the new engine. FWD sump from ST engine bolted up under the Silvertop to make it easier to transport / manoeuvre. Therefore you will need your own sump and pickup pipe to complete. For sale as a complete package for £1000, or sold separately: Engine c/w clutch and flywheel £400 (SOLD) Weber 45s with short trumpets on manifold with single cable linkage SOLD Mapped Weber Alpha ECU and loom £150 WhatsApp me for video of the engine running in the car before I removed it. 07814 359423. Collection from Salisbury.

Hi All, Anyone got a Ford Zetec 1.8, (idealy a phase/series 2) it should have RKC engine number, they would like to sell? Cheers, Antony

Hi I'm after some engine mounts for Zetec Silvertop. I think that the N/S (passenger side) engine mounting bracket is interchangeable (with the Blacktop?) but the O/S (driver side) one isn't, so if you have upgraded to a blacktop and have this going spare i'd be interested in just the O/S or full set if you changed the lot? Thanks Andy

Hi Chaps. I am in the process of replacing my Ford Silvertop engine with a new Blacktop unit on my Westy. I have for sale the cylinder head from my Silvertop. Item Description: - Cylinder Head removed from a Ford 1.8L Zetec Silvertop Engine. - This includes valves & spring assemblies (Tappets also available) - I cannot fully verify the age and mileage of the source engine , as this was already on the car when I purchased my Westy. - The engine that this head was removed from, was burning oil / smoking. - Although this was rooted to scored cylinder bores, it is possible that the valve stem oil seals may have also contributed to the oil consumption (I do not think so, but I simply do not know for certain) Price: £55 or reasonable offers. Location: Gillingham, KENT Delivery: Pick up only as it is too heavy & expensive to ship. I am happy to deliver in the Medway area of KENT only. If you need more info, feel free to call me on 07881 655 878.

Can anyone advise please? I have a 2L Zetec, an early version purchased in 1998 from Raceline. The head is described as a Silvertop and it is standard, casting number 958MR-6090-CC on exhaust face. I wish to fit a later Blacktop which I have, casting number XS76090AC. The later head has marginally larger valves and will be the basis for further mods. Externally the heads do look very similar but not identical and nothing that can't be modified to suit I think. However are the water ways, oil ways etc the same? Has anyone undertaken this alteration and aware of any problems please?

I have just bought the below engine, rightly or wrongly, and only require the sump. Can I interest anyone in the engine for whatever a reasonable price may be for a reasonably quick sale? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-1-8-Silvertop-Zetec-With-Raceline-Sump-Kitcar-Westfield-locost-racing-1800-/152257152353?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368 Daniel
