was in the scrapyard today and im sure a saw a sierra with a DOHC engine. Am i imagining things or can anyone shed any light on what the engine is?

A heap of poo! I have one sat in my donorcar/driveway if anyone fancies taking it away?

Could be the Cossy sierra, that was a 2l DOHC....nice
I would imagine that some of the Sierras were fitted with the 16v DOHC that they plonked in a lot of the Granadas. Good strong engine but apparently warp the head if they boil up and you cant get replacements... so I was told by the nice man from the AA the other week.

Its not a 16v its an 8v!

Alright if you want to run a stock 110bhp ish engine but if you are up for a bit of tuning you will be hard pushed to find any tuning bits for it.

If I was looking for a scrap yard donor engine on a tight budget I would opt for Pinto rather than DOHC.

Its a 8v dohc mated to MT75 box. I have one in my back garden. Not bad for a donor if you have an engine and box. Although you can use the MT75.
