I'm about to start building my chassis, basically a mcsorley 442, I havent sourced my running gear yet, and was wondering if a zetec paired to a T9 would be a trouble free fit?
Just so I Know if I can get under way or If I should wait untill my running gear has been sourced.

my mate has a westy with a zetec. engine fits in there ok. just remember IIRC that the zetec is a fairly tall engine, so may have to shorten the oil sump?

fairly common engine though.

good luck!

iv got a zetec and type 9 in my Luego locost chassis which is book based so a 442 will take it easy..
