I have a complete engine and fuel system from a 2000 Ford Focus ZX3 M/T (the
2.0l DOHC 4-valve engine) that I would like to sell. I got this system to put
into a Superformance S1 and to be able to experiment to see how
much power I could get from it using an EEC Tuner. I wound up with a different
Seven and engine system and would like to sell the engine system.

I got a complete car from a local 'yard and dissected out everything that had to do with the engine and fuel systems. For example, I have the components for
the PATS including the ignition key, the ECU, the complete (and undamaged) wiring harness and
all the bits that went with it like clutch pedal switch and brake pedal switch,
the MAF, air box and filter, i.e., the works. The engine includes the exh
manifold, catalytic converter and flexible connector to the rest of the
exhaust, the clutch and F/W and starter, and the water pump. The fuel tank was
removed with pump intact along with the fuel pump controller (returnless fuel
system) and all the plumbing connections. The fuel supply and evap lines were
cut for removal. All other evap pieces included. Other than the fuel and evap
lines and the connection from the wiring harness to the air bag controller,
nothing else that was removed was cut.

Because Ford connectors can be really difficult to get and can change in
mid-model year, I went through all this trouble to ensure that everything
needed by the engine and fuel systems with respect to engine management control
was correct and intact. The work took 5 days.

The car was a daily driver for some salesman making his rounds. Oil change
record shows that the car was maintained. Mileage is 50,000.

It looked like the owner stuffed the car under something tall, like the rear
of a semi. There appeared relatively minor front end damage when I got the
car, but its forehead was wrinkled. I was very happy with it's condition happy 'cause none of the mechanicals or electrics were damaged.

I finished dissecting the car in March of 2002, squirted oil in
each of the cylinders and turned the engine over once. Since then it and its
several boxes of components have been covered up and tucked away in the corner
of a dry but un-heated garage. I have a bunch of supporting stuff (documentation, diagrams and tuning information) for anyone interested in installing and playing with this system.

Sorry for late reply - been away.

$1500 would be reasonable given that it is a complete system. For example, I got a call from someone doing a GT40 kit - this would be perfect for such an app, since the harness would fit this rear and crosswise installation. Also, IF you want the stock engine management system, this is worthwhile since it's a turnkey in that regard and will be very well behaved. If you just need an engine, I've seen bare Zetec's for $400, but they were pretty rough.
Cheers,

John, we need to hold off on this, until we get what we will be recieving up and running properly first. But when we are ready, this sounds like the way to go.

I expect to be here for a while while I finish building my second choice Se7en.
Look forward to hearing from you.
