Now then lads and lasses,

i am going to fit an 1800 zetec to my indy and need a sump and various other bits n bobs to go on the engine.
I have been offered a fully dressed 1600 sigma straight out of a focus at a price i cannot refuse( nowt ).
My question is this, will any of the bits ie the sump, fit on the 1800 or am i barking up the wrong tree.

Dont all laugh at once please.
Andy

Completely different engine so nothing will be interchangable

No interchangeable parts, sorry. Zetec SE and Zetec E are totaly different engines.

Why not fit the Sigma?

The exhaust is on the same side as the Pinto and it is very light.

You'll need a bellhousing converter to mate it to a type 9. They are supposed to be great little engines.

Thanks for the info gentlemen,
i will pass on the engine.

The reason it has been removed from the car is that it will only run on 3 cylinders.The local garage that has the focus think it has burnt out a valve.
Otherwise i would think about fitting it.
