Engine

Want to start building in Holland
A Velocity XT and I want to know if a Ford engine with fuel injection (Zetec/Duratec 2.0 16V) fits in a Velocity XT
Who knows it?????

Yes the Zetec will fit. The yellow donor ontheir website has a Zetec with a custom built inlet manifold and individual throttle bodies fitted. Don't know about the Duratec but I'd imagine that will as well.
Why d'you want to go all the way to holland to build it, why not stay here (irony)

At Stoneleigh they had a car at the stand which had the standard Ford injection system on the Zetec, but used a custom made (very nice!) manifold.
Ah, and they even supply engine mounts (which was a problem with my Indy).

Good to have another builder here in Holland.
