Zetec Headache!

[Chris Scott]

Evening everyone.....I’m hoping someone can help!

When I got my car it came with 2 engines (with faults) both zetecs, both look the same externally (both silver tops)

The idea was to make a good engine out of the pair...however we have had the heads off and one has 76mm bores one 80mm 

Is there an easy way to tell what I have, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0? What bits might be interchangeable etc?

ive tried Googling and it doesn’t appear to be that straight forward! Thanks

I'm sure the 2l bore size is 84.8mm. I will check my notes.

Thanks, we’re wondering if we have a 1600

and an 1800?

if so does anyone know if cranks and rods etc are the same? Is it just bore size that’s different?

although the heads seem to be different too!

The 1.6 is 76mm according to Burton's https://www.burtonpower.com/nural-piston-ford-1-6-16v-zetec-e-76mm-23983-std.html

Yep, you've guessed it the 1.8 is 80.6mm https://www.burtonpower.com/nural-piston-ford-1-8-16v-zetec-80-6mm-23984-std.html

Have you seen the information at the link below ?  It list the Engine code for the variants, the code should be stamped on the engine block.
