Afternoon all,
It looks like I may have a blown headgasket on my 1.8 silvertop so I am on the hunt for a new engine as I am a bit dubious to how good this engine.
Any 1.8 or 2.0 silvertop engines considered . It needs to be pre-95 as I am doing an IVA test next year so don't want to put a cat on it.
I'm located in Leicestershire but I am happy to drive.
You'll be lucky to find one these days.
Why not fix the one you've got? Could be as simple as taking the head off and a new gasket?
Hi
I've got one sat in the garage, it's a 1.8 fitted with 2.0 cams. Complete with modified sump,clutch,coil pack and starter motor.
Let me know if your interested
Cheers Jason
I have a 1800 Silvertop bottom end plus two 1800 heads sitting in my garage.
The block has a letter from Ford technical information centre confirming the engine fitted to a vehicle May 1992.
I was planning to rebuild this engine but plans have now changed, i also have parts to rebuild including new ford 2 litre cams plus hydraulic
lifters.
Also new oil pump new water pump cam belt kit head bolts and gaskets.
I'm looking for £250 for the lot.
U2U me if interested.

Failing the above engines I also have one!
It is originally from a rs1800i so is the 130bhp variant.
No sump and some big end bolts removed for another engine....
I will PM a price!
I'm struggling to find silver top bits mate also.
Or buy a new crated blacktop, chage the cam cover and stamp your engine number on it?
Hi folks have a 1.8 silvertop engine built by scholar with over 1800 spent on it for sale give me a shout
