find a 130 bhp 1800. no need for the 2.0.
as in the RS1800 inlet, cams and ECU. There was a lad with a blue Mk3 track car with an 1800 knocking out 230bhp on ITBs. Apparently the 1800 block is stronger and was bored out to 1927cc for steel high comp pistons
yeh, there are 2 1.8's the 115 and the 130. escort gti's, rs1800, and a few others had em.
pretty sure there are some 105bhp models as well :p
probably. it is ford ffs.... lol
It was always a mod to put the bigger 1.8 16v Orion TB on the XR2 1.8 16v's iirc.
yeh Mk5 Orions had the 130bhp engine too, and were probably more common than the RS1800s.
i got one of those orions for a weekend rental once..... boring as hell to look at, but hilarious to driveQuote:

the zetec was desingned to be an 1800 so the 2.0 are bored 1800s and the 1600s are scaled down thats why ive chosen a 1800 zvh turbo in my series one as to the common 2.1
