Zetec 1.25 Info?

Anyone know the bellhousing pattern on the little 1.25 zetec?

Will a type 9 bolt up to this engine?

Ta,
Steve

Cracking little engine... I run one in my Mojo - see my website for more info : Link

The 1.25 puts out 70-75bhp which is not huge, but it revs really easily and is nice and light so performance can still be quite rewarding! Here's a dyno report for the 1.25 : link

Just what I was thinking Ed, looks cracking install there. Are you using the Ford management or something else?

I'm running the standard Ford EEC-V ECU at the moment, but I've just bought a 1600 SE lump and now I'm wondering about an ECU upgrade. Omex, Emerald, Megasquirt - hmmm....

I've started off with the 1.25 because it was in my donor car so I reused as much as possible to keep costs down and get me on the road as soon as possible. Now I'm a bit more used to rear wheel drive I've decided that a bit more power wouldn't go amiss. Also, this engine has done just over 100K miles and I'm not sure how much longer it'll last when I start doing some trackdays. They're pretty bulletproof really and it runs as smooth as a nut but I need a winter project!

Not using any Ford bellhousing, but aftermarket bellhousings are available to mate Type 9s to the Zetec SE engines.
