If your going to go 2.0 Simon, it's only 200cc up on your present engine. You might be better off going the whole hog and aiming for a 2.5...
Graham. . .stop it.
Actually, there is not much wrong with Stanley's Zetec engine, (as a few members of this site have found out.
)
However the gearbox is a fairly rudimentary affair in comparison with the latest Mazda 'boxes.
Also I do like the narrow body/wings & the narrower, deeper section tyres of the 4/4 (along with painted wires); IMHO they gives the vehicle a "classic" look.

I haven't had my zetec 4/4 long enough to judge it's performance yet, but I'm more than happy for you to experiment with yours on my behalf!

I think he wants a roadster but is unsure whether he would drive Stanley and a Roadster, mind you if one was yellow
The 2.5 that Williams can do will give you the power (and the glory) without the weight of a 6.

The 2.5L we do at Williams can be easily built at any spec, just like any engines that comes in the Mogs

Any spec eh? Hmmmmmm.......how about a pair of the 2.5s mounted in a "V" shape?

You're going to need some seriously upgraded brakes to go with that then
