I originally bought these for the 7M - but i was misdirected - the Zetec-E is 27.5mm not 25mm shims, i *think* i need the Zetec-SE shims, which would make more sense, as its a Yamaha designed engine, and 25mm shims are prolific on Yamaha bikes - i'll check that for definite though.
I can now confirm that Ford Zetec-E valve shims are 27.5mm in diameter, the same as stock 2JZ shims. Only the solid lifter variant uses shims. They cost considerably less, too. Zetec-E engines were found in European Market Ford Mondeo's, and possibly US Market Ford Contours (rebadged Mondeo)...

This guy has turned something pulled out of a RAVINE into a stunning project car - and he's never welded before now!

I wish someone had made these before i went and fitted Bosch clips to mine! >_<
Well i got it to boost to 8psi just now, not entirely sure how - was just taking it 'round the block' so see how it coped. On an uphill twisty section doing about 40mph and trying to give it some throttle, it CHUGGED. Didn't want to go up it - but i kept the throttle at a constant and got up the...
Ladies and Gentlemen....the BITCH IS BACK!
Got the old power steering fluid reservoir re-installed as the there was no way of mounting the N/A one for the moment. The coolant temperature gauge (arguably the most important one) doesn't work, either. Which is annoying. Means i have to take the...
Wastegate was fine when i put it on, its on an adjustable actuator, set for 10psi.
The TSRM's 'TC' section shows the elbow, but no torque settings for the nuts - is there a recommended setting? Also - the turbo to manifold specifies 34lb/ft for the nuts but there's no way to get a torque...
