I4 to type 9
Has any one fitted type 9 to I4 engine and is anything required to do so. I prefer the type 9 to mt75. regards Arthur.

i think he might mean a duratec, i think that had a code name i4, in which case i reckon the answer is probably yes, with some fettling and a healthy
budget. or perhaps the dohc sierra engine i4, which i think the consensus is not a great option, but is more likely to bolt straight to it as it would
use the ford bolt pattern which didn't change untill the duratec he.
hope helps

I4 = crap DOHC that came after the pinto
Now I've also seen the Duratec HE with an I4 suffix, have a look here at wiki:
click me baby......
Have a look under names reference.
If it is a Duratec then you need a bellhousing from Titan / Yukspeed etc because its a Mazda engine.
Have a look for flak monkeys posts, he explains the clutch, fly wheels and more.

I4 is short for inline four, a straight 4 cylinder engine if it had H4 it would be a flat four cylinder like the subaru, V on v6 v8s and 12s and W
like the bugatti and so on! not sure if all engine start with all those codes!

I thought that was the 8v 'Zetec RoCam' that was rebadged as a duratec for the KA (its a cheap version of the zetec SE)
its all alloy so hasn't got much in common with kent block

Yes, but with an alloy OHC head.
If you were building a 1300cc car and wanted to use a Ford 4 speed, it might actually make sense, but I guess not.
It seems everyone needs a minimum of 150bhp in their half ton car these days to feel that it's even slightly quick.

If it is the old DOHC then either type 9 or MT75 will bolt straight up the new Duratec needs a bell housing, Rally Design do a purpose built one for
around £200

getting off topic here, all i was pointing out is that according to wiki ford now refer to all their engines, nevermind their heritage, as duratec,
which is a bit like saying its an engine engine... all which is irrelevant because the method of doing so has succinctly been given above.

I4 has become the accepted term for the Ford DOHC engine used in the Sierra as well as being a description for the layout of any 4 cylinder in-line
engine.
Google "Ford I4 engine" & you'll find plenty of info on it.
There is of course the possibility that some of you knew that & have deliberately misunderstood the original poster in order to take the mick.
Or am I just being a bit too cynical?

the 2.5 ST engine used to be a 24v V6, but now its a 20v inline 5 turbo (based on a volvo T5 I think)
but they are all called duratec's
