GRBBONGO Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 Hi i am a newbie looking to purchase my first westfield in the near future. You mention your stunning example comes with the 1.8 Zetec, i was just wondering how much work would be involved to install it ready to run. I would say im fairly handy with basic mechanics so not too concerned on that point. Just wondered how involved it would be. Does the engine need a baffled/shortened sump fitted? If i were to go for carbs does this do away with any engine management system? Any extra comments/advise would be greatly received. Thanks, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingster Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 You'll need a sump for sure. Carbs will still need an ECU, albeit a cheaper one than that required for Injection. But (from my own research as I am putting a Zetec into my car) here's a list of sorts: Sump Flywheel Clutch Starter Motor Clutch Cable Clutch Arm Release Bearing Throttle Bodies/Carbs Manifold for TBs/Carbs Air Filter Engine loom ECU Engine Mount Arms Engine Mount Rubbers Small Alternator Spigot Bearing Hoses Belts & Pulleys Exhaust Manifold It all adds up. Looks like a tidy rolling chassis though - and it is IVA'd so that's a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1991westy Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 Don't forget this is a great club with lots of plentiful advice and second hand parts at competitive prices, I have seen shortened sumps for sale on Ebay for a little over £100. I believe this car could be completed for little outlay especially if you are not in a rush to complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kingster Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Might be worth a look on locostbuilders.co.uk search for posts by big_wasa if you fancy using the std injection as he knows how to get it running with std ford ecu (cheap as chips) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
