02 Plate Mondeo engine?Also MR2
Just been to local scrappy and they have an o2 plate Mondeo in. Can antbody tell me what engine that might be in it and would it be suitable for a
locost and whats involved in fitting it ? I was intending to fit a crossflow engine so havn't looked at alternatives but can get the mondeo
engine for much cheapness so has started me thinking  Before anybody suggest it i dont do bike engines!
The scrappy also has a mk2 MR2 in. What engines were fitted to them as i could probably get that cheap as well.
Before anybody suggest it i dont do bike engines!
Cheers Ronnie

I'm sure that the Mondeo will be a blacktop Zetec but could be a Duratec as they were introduced around that time both of which will need fuel
injection and a cat. You really need to have a peek under the bonnet to see and also need to know what the engine size is.
I'm not sure about the MR2 as I think that the 4AGE was only used in the Mk1 but I could well be wrong there.

Assuming 1.8/2.0, the mondy engine will be a duratec. Bit more fiddly than the zetec but IMHO worth it for the increased power. However will cost
around (IME) £500 on top of the zetec as you will need to fork out for other things like bellhousings to mount it to a Type 9 (and, as above) a
catalytic converter
Silvertop zetec launch -> 1998
Blacktop zetec 1998 -> 2000
Duratec 2000 -> Present
