I love the binary VVT control you ended up using, it sounds like VTEC crossover in the best way.

Finding the right TDC pin is a pain in the butt! They're only just available for the 2.0 MZR with forged crank. I had to make my own out of threaded rod. Luckily I was starting with a timed engine so I was able to do that

4:38 DuraTEC kicked in yo?

Howdy there and great build! I wanna ask, however, what are the Height/Width/Length dimensions of the engine? In mm or Inches, preferably?

Hi danst . With 2.0 Duratec standart what power on itb ? Y what power with cams ? Do you sella cams ?

I know I’m a bit late to the party but is the 2.5 a better option over the 2.0 or 2.3? Bigger is usually better but are there any downsides over the other two engine sizes?

Oh my God, I must buy that. I must have a Itb set up for my Mazda 3😂

How high is your rev limit? I have an actual ford fusion I've been thinking of and ITB setup for it. The fusion has a rev limit of around 6700 rpms.

we have the limiter set at 7k but power peaks just slightly over 6k

I might be wrong but it looks like you might have used the wrong TDC pin to set the crank at TDC.....that looks to be the pin that's used on the older Zetec motors

turns out you were right on that! the kit had both Zetec and Duratec pins (the duratec one was MIA and it was assumed that the only pin in the box was the correct one!).

Wow!, I can only guess how that acceleration feels in the car. It really comes on strong.

I want to ask a question I build the US version of the Ford escort I have been doing zetec swaps for years the cars in the United States originally had a split port 2.0 liter engine my question is concerning a duratec swap I plan on taking a 2.5 from a fusion the same as the engine your using and a 6-speed manual transmission and swapping it in a escort the only issue I will have is controlling the engine what would be the best option to control the engines basic functions and be able to use the the variable valve timing without losing any horsepower?

The ME221 is a well priced EFI ecu and comes with a duratec loom which will get you 90% plug and play, depending what TPS you use etc. This ecu fully controls the duratec vct (the only ecu in this price bracket to do so). danstengineering.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=1544&search=ME221+duratec

How do you have the on and off setup on the vvt? Is it on from start and off at at certain rpm

I find it really motivating how this engine stock with that little mods makes so much power, makes you wonder how much more power can be gained by putting in racing cams, porting the head and bumping up the compression. Well done on this build sir👌You mind sharing what the cam timing and ignition timing was on this build?

I noticed that you have put car throttle bodies on the car instead of one of your bike throttle bodies kits. Is it because the car derived ones offer more power?

No, we have only used these because they are 50mm diameter (very few bike bodies are that big) and we were looking to future proof it for further mods.
