First drive after converting from pinto to zetec.
lotusmadandy - 2/3/10 at 04:20 PM

I have just taxed my indy and taken it out for the first time after swapping the pinto to a 2.0 zetec.
I thought the pinto was good but the zetec is fantastic.It revs up faster, accelarates faster and the new yokohamas are excellent
i didn't want to put it away when it was time to go home.

Can't wait for sunday morning.

Nice one Andy, glad you got the teething probs out of the way, you off to the Scotch Corner Ford meet?

Cheers

I am indeed going to scotch corner Rich.
Are you and the Bruise going?
If so i will see you there

Cheers Neil,though it will probably rain and spoil it all.

I have the 1.8 in mine on twin 40's and GEMS ECU running the ignition plenty fast enought, I would recommend fitting th 2 litre camshafts for the extra bit of oooomph about another 10bhp

Hi Andy,

The tyres are Parada spec 2's. They are a lot better than the concrete tyres that came with the wheels.

Austin man,

It is a 2.0 engine.i bought it from a ford fitter,who told me it was a 136 motor with 60000 miles on it.
I Have a spare 1.8 zetec that i was going to fit 2.0 cams to but i got the chance of the 2.0.
