One of the guys from the Westfield forums is selling a highly specced engine its on the bay of e link below
2.1 Pinto Complete, Westfield, Kit Car, Locost, Historic Racing, Rallying | eBay
How much!!?
You could get a zetec and tune it for less than that with more power...
surely even a std duratec for that money, I know which i'd rather have!
I suppose a pound for a pound is the going rate
i bought my 2.1 pinto from Vulcan ad its the 165bhp spec. put a limiter on it to run it in and it does not run the full 165 bhp yet but does it
perform
timed at 0 to 60 4.5 secs two up
just reminded my self that ive done the required miles so i can turn the revs up to 7600 fro 6000
i'd recomend a good pinto... sorry boat anchor
ditch

DIY Si - 3/3/12 at 10:54 PMWhilst there are cheaper, newer engines, what would it cost to get a 2.0 litre Pinto to the spec he's got?

152 BHP at buildquote:
Yes possably good for a Pinto, but an almost standard Zetec will make 160, with a great deal less being spent on it, and will still coble on the same gear box. Cheers Ray
beaver34 - 3/3/12 at 11:35 PMit has to be worth that, the carbs must fetch afew hundred on there own
shindha - 4/3/12 at 02:28 PMI would imagine to build a Pinto to that specification it would cost considerably more, so if you have a pinto and are thinking of upping the power this has to be a cost and time effiecent way of doing it.
Dave Ashurst - 4/3/12 at 02:35 PMYes it would, and after all, you don't HAVE to accept the buy-it-now price!
I believe you can make an offer.
