Zetec Crank pulley-any others fit??
cliftyhanger - 10/7/07 at 12:19 PM

Heres hoping for some good news.....
I need to move the crank pulley forward to enable the rack to fit between the block and the pulley on my 1800 silvertop Zetec, by about 30mm. I could (gulp) commission a custom jobbie, but that will no doubt cost a small, if not large, fortune. I suspect a spacer would be tricky too.
So, how about other ford engines. Would a CVH or pinto one fit? I was thinking if I could get one with multiple V belts, and machine the unused ones down? obviously need to swap alternator and waterpump pulleys too, but they are much easier (maybe not the waterpump??)

TIA

CVH 1.8 is a straight swap and the pulley is further away from the block. It has a toothed wheel for the ignition on it, but this can be removed.

If you need any measurements let me know.

I've got a spare if you need it.

The water pump one should be easy to move out with a custom spacer.

Local place here made me up a blacktop - silvertop water pump pulley adapter for about 30 squids. Custom CNC job.
