Zetec inlet?
Which zetec inlet can i use, the standard plastic inlet fouls the steering, but i dont want it to stand above the engine.

if its the silver top you may find that the oil filter also fouls your steering I had to modify the steering on an MK indy and a locost to get round
this

Hi, Yea the oil filter did foul the steering, I got away with this by putting an Alfa Romeo oil filter on as its quite short
Doe anyone know if its possible to fit the sierra efi gear and inlet? Would this work?

brother in law has gon for bike carbs as throttle bodies and kept the injection. Not sure whether the blacktop inlet is a different size. You could
also look at the rover turbo inlet and plenum

I've used a plenum very similar to the one griffin power sell... Maybe something along that lines if you plan on using original ford throttle
body. Don't think you will be able to get ECU to run with bike carbs.

You will if you use an air box with a Maf stuck on it.  Will also need ford Tps .
A lot of bother though.
