What engine is this?

Vince · 7 Jun 2011 at 22:33

Its an evo engine for sure, the same as this one:

The car in the pic is a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR

Again, that engine is red, not green. We've been through this already.

No its not, thats a Mivec engine. The one in the OP is not?

Vince · 7 Jun 2011 at 22:37

We have indeed but that means nothing, you can respray the rocker, I ashamedly had a rocker cover for a zetec engine finished in red when I owned an escort.

Kenai · 7 Jun 2011 at 22:40

Well no it doesn't mean nothing, a green engine is clearly not the same as a red engine. Fair enough if you're colourblind I could understand the confusion perhaps but they're not the same.

Vince · 7 Jun 2011 at 22:43

Am still scratching my head? What is going on here?

Are you sure? :confused:

We're trying to identify the engine but people keep making silly suggestions that are clearly wrong.

Red ones are faster though...

I swear I've seen that type of engine recently, but I can't quite put my finger on where.

Today perhaps?

Lol at everyone.

Definately an old Flathead V8.

I can tell by the carbs.

Ok, I see a cool air intake, it's got a NOS Fogger system and a T-4 Turbo, Dominic. I see an A-I-C controller, it has direct port nitrous injection......

Definitely a Zetec.

Are you sure?

Yes, read it? Green one says 'DOHC 16 Valve' on it, the one you posted says 'MIVEC Turbo' on it?

He blew the gearbox up

Vince · 7 Jun 2011 at 23:13

tbh I looked at it then thought Ive seen one of these before. The engine layout looked like the mivic to me, breather on the bottom right of the rocker, same filler cap location, cambelt pullys in the same place, manifold looked to be in the same place apart from some silly manifold on the pug. Dont get me wrong I know the writing is not the same but I figured if I could buy custom rocker covers 5 years ago that you could still pick them up today.

Either way I wonder what brakes he has for stopping the thing, I bet that little pug wouldn't be a nice place to be with all that power.

I call shenanigans, the 205 never came with a green engine. Only rusty, fact.

Yeah, and a standalone fuel management system. Not a bad way to spend ten thousand dollars.
