You will never attach bike carbs to a type 9 box, its just not possible





If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

fountain of knowledge indeed, so lets try and answer his question

errr, i don't know the answer, but loads of other folk on here have done just that.
as i understand, any bike engine over about 600cc should be a good source for carbs. mine for my 2.0 vauxhall are from a zx9r. need a little modifying, drilling of main jets, and an inlet manifolld needs to be made. look up shortrack123 on here. he laser cuts manifold plates and sells on ebay. weld a few suitable diameter tubes at strategic places and angles, and connect with rubber tube. jobs a good 'un.
have a look on Jacko's photo archive on here. he'll be happy to answer questions on it.
gearbox, again easily done. i'm not sure which bell housings fit, but anyone with a zetec on here's done it

good luck

Hi mate, currently waiting on parts list/quotes from SBD, Burton Power and Raceline for converting both Zetecs and Duratecs to RWD applications in a sevenesque car.

I intend on posting in a separate thread so people can bookmark it if necessary, but I will post the link here when its compiled.

Not a kit but a classic Triumph!
The 1.3 currently in place is a good motor putting out around 95bhp but I need a bit more power.
I have a ford Type 9 fitted and Megajolt ect. So a 2.0ltr Zetec seems the way to go Rescued attachment carcompresses.JPG
