Where 4 A NEW Engine GearBox LSD

[Steven (WE51STE)]

Hi There,

I have now made my purchase of my westfield SEi Starter Kit  Thanks for your advice on my previous post

I decided against the Green / Yellow and gone for Crimson with lots of chrome.

I have also managed to purchase a private reg WE51 STE

With black bolts either side of the 1 to make a T it give WESTSTE - with my name also being Steve I think its a good reg to have.  However. this means i am going to have to build it with all new parts.

I am looking for a new :

 2.0L Zetc

 Gear Box

 Limited Slip Diff

I doubt any one is going to buy them for me but can anyone suggest what I should expect to pay and the best place to get them from ( PS Based in the midlands)

Thanks in advance

Steve

Should all be available from the factory. I also understand that YKC (north Yorks) had some new Zetecs

If your going for brand new parts why not go for a Duratec(£2000?) mated to a Quaife or BGH type 9 box(£800-1000) with a 2nd hand LSD Ford viscous jobbie (3.62 Ratio £100, 3,92 Ratio £150)

I belive that you would be allowed one 2nd hand bit in your drivetrain

Either that or get new LSD (£500ish) from Road & Race transmissons(do a search ) & 2nd hand engine from scrappie Zetec (£200-£500) Duratec (£750-?)

Reson for Quaife/BGH Type 9 is you'll get better ratios suited to Westfield setup (normal MT75 will have a really short 1st gear & then the others will be a little far apart, especially if you intend doing much competition/track work.)

if you want new  try the ford power product dealers .usually get excellent prices on engines and gearboxs .plus very helpful

westfield used to get there engines from them.

Hi,

Popped into my local Ford Garage this afternoon and got the following quotes :

New Duratec 2.0L  #2523 + #300 no exchange surcharge

New Zetec 2.0L #1628 + #225 no exchange surcharge

MT75 Gearbox #556 + #120 no exchange surcharge

should be abe to get 15% off these prices

Does anyone know if these are good prices or can you suggest any better places.

Thanks for you help

Have you Tried Raceline for the Duratec, also remember its not just the lump youve got to source its all the ancils too. does the one you quoted come with the loom and ECU?

[Steven (WE51STE)]

No its just prices for the lump.

What would the costs for all the ancilerices be ?

Westfield charge :

5K for 1800 module 3 zetec

6.7K for 2000 module 3 duratec

I'm hoping to reduce these prices

[Westfieldman]

New Duratec engine can be had for

£1300.00  Ammo

£1365.00 Dolton power products

£1500.00 SBD

Duratec bits

Fly wheel £175.00  SBD

Bellhousing £275.00  SBD

7 1/2" clutch   ? ?

Starter motor £175.00 Ford

CRB about £150.00 Ford

Exhaust and induction is about the same for any 4 pot engine in a Westfield

IMHO sell the plate and buy a load of bits second hand and save a s**t load of money and at that awkward time of year [MOT time] its pre 75 Vis smoke only.

you can use one re-manufactured major part, ie engine.

there you go, thats just saved you a grand  

(now can we talk about my consultancy fee   )

[pete g]

find out where your nearest power product dealer is .thats not your normal  ford garage . you will get every thing with there engines. i got my type 9 gearbox from perrys at potters bar [not there any more] for £400 plus vat that included bell housing clutch plate flywheel nuts and bolts,gearlever release arm in fact everything was included.price from normal ford garage over £1000 just for gearbox. this was in 1992 but they are still about. will dig out old phone numbers if you want them. but some may not still be there  .

regards pete.
