jaymz Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 has anyone looked at putting a efi engine in there escort? what engine fit's in easy and is easy to get hold of. I know there are sierra 2.0 efi engines but they arn't that common are they. I have heard that a old 1.8 sylvia engine was the same mounts and fit's and i have seen a few 4age's in escorts what's the story with this hard work or easy go ahead and do it. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteretep Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 yea it is but even though its a nice car its been so butchered, it has stuff from every car u can imagine on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Mk1 Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 And its got 18's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RT Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 yeah the 18's looked stupid in my opinion...just too big. But still a pretty cool car, I liked the colour. It had a n/a pinto in it with the injecion of a Granada. It wasn't a exact fit though he had to modify the runners. It looks just the same as the Serria item. I'm pretty sure it was an OZ car cos we have less Granada's here than injected Serrias! Dude, the easiest thing to do if you already running a pinto is get a Serria efi manifold from the UK. Unless you manage to get all the sensors, loom etc forget the factory computer and get an aftermarket one... Or, my mate managed to use a toyota 2tgeu setup on his, but it was pretty hoarey. You have to chop off the runners & graft them onto the ford flange. Can work though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
