Decided to set up a new thread about my engine from the Saab thread

Engine is almost finished

Just need the turbo and then its going on the engine dyno.

I'm NOT putting this back into the Westy as it will be way too much for it.

Ive found another use for the Zetec in a project for later in the year. Top secret for the moment put it will be something a bit different and rear engined.

As for the westy, its almost done and will be running a 2.2 all alloy 5 cylinder Volvo engine on throttle bodies

Power is expected to be circa 320bhp, and rev to 9'000 rpm plus

Engine will be similar to this put better  :devil:

For the first time I've decided to go nasp, hopefully i wont be disappointed, will set up a separate post for that engine as and when things happen, its about 50% there at the moment and taking shape nicely.

This is how the last engine looked last year

I think it will be a very nice engine in the Westy, and for a bonus, nice sound to :love:  2,2? here we have 2,5 engines, it must be a export engine.

I'm usine a 77mm 2.0l crank and 152mm long rods with custom pistons and a 2.5 block

Best of both worlds to give a 2.2

Unfortunately I have an office job but would like to start doing engine building for people if there is sufficient interest.
