terry i meant to edit that out, It would neeed a custom clutch disc, Also can anybody give me the measurement of how deep the mtx trans bell housing is? I need a really close number
-
terry do you think it would be possible to keep the factory flexplate, clutch, pressure plate assembly, and bellhousing if i made a custom bracket to mate the t-5 transmission? And then just get a custom friction disc and pilot bearing to match?
-
why can't anything be easy damnit
-
hmm its still a possibility though could a bellhousing from the mtx75 that mates to the 2.0 bolt onto the jags?
-
Damn I was hoping it would mate up to the 2.0, I am still deciding whether awd or rwd is best for me
-
So everybody I've done more research on this topic, and now I'm hearing stuff such as a jaguar x type mtx75 awd trany might bolt right onto this motor. Anybody know if this is true? I mean i know a lot would have to change but if it bolts on then I can fab mounts and such
-
Oh ok I see what you did, What kind of stock were you using, and what else needs to be done?
-
@ianmcc thanks that seems to be what i was looking for, can you post pictures of what yours looks like?
-
Yes, I will be rotating the engine, I was curious if there might have been anything in the local junkyard I could use though
-
Does anybody know of a rwd manual transmission and bellhousing that will bolt right onto the zetec? This will not be going in a contour, however I wasn't sure were to post this.
-
terry after digging into it, it seems the chain tensioner has failed, allowing the chain to smack everything. Looks like i need a new car for now
-
I'm getting a rattling sound coming from cylinder 4 and the front of the engine, could this be my chain? The car has 124000 miles on it
-
That wasn't easy to do either..
-
damn, have you seen this happen before terry? It looks like a previous owner was in a hurry to go in reverse.
-
wow dude your's looks the same as mine. the one bolt completely rusted through and the trans now has a ton of corrosion in that area. Terry can this be replaced easily?
-
does anybody know what that panel does?
-
indeed, I hope Terry could comment about this.
-
There a bolt thats rusted off. And the plate is broken. Was about to do complete suspension overhaul until i saw that.
-
thanks for that terry. Your an honest guy. Lol
-
so i guess my final question on this subject would be, Do you guys think it would be worth it?
-
the thinking about just using the stock intake and fabin up a bracket. I'd have to block egr and inject hole but it would be good for proof of concept i think
-
Thanks terry for the input. I this it would be easier to do a carb setup because tuning an efi engine seems to be harder to do. Could i run everything stock on the motor to start? besides the intake of course
-
I guess that would be the only to do it. I was hoping it would be so expensive. lol http://www.burtonpower.com/tuning-guides/tuning-guide-pages/ford-zetec-e-tuning-guide/weber-alpha-carburettor-ignition-kit-zetec-18-45-dcoe-5-98-webk99001.html Would this fit on the 96 zetec? Also Does it come with everthing needed to run the car? They also mention 130PS Cams. I'm not sure what this means
-
I like the idea of this for my racing setup. Any idea's where to get started?
-
the same thing happened to me with the bushings. and idea where to get them?
