Another Zetec into Bay (78)

[Chris]

Hey guys! I'm glad I found a place on the internet where you can be a modern engine AND old school car fan. I tend to get the flame treatment when I talk to "true" VW enthusiasts when I tell them what engine I'm putting in my bus.

Here's the specs:

1978 Westy Champagne Edition
2000 Ford Escort ZX/2 race prepped Zetec
1984 091 rod shift trans (yes, I have all the parts to do this)

Here are the plans:
Modern FI engine (acquired)
Modern interior (dark woods, stainless trims, microfibre)
Air conditioning
Fully functioning camper with sink, stove, fridge
All LED lighting inside and out (tastefully done)
Modern brakes, suspension, and steering (red9design)

Here are some pics:
Engine with replacement front end


Coil On Plug helps with keeping them out of the way. Header will help with passing

Good to see another Ford 'why don't you just buy a transit' conversion on here

That is one sexy looking engine

Good luck with the build and keep us posted hopefully you'll get all the help you need from here.

your project outline sounds like a good one, you got any timescales in mind?
