Would you be able to get any of that power down in a FWD car that weighs less than a ton...

I'm wondering about that myself? :dunno: I had 250hp in my civic and it only barely got the power down in second.. 400 will see you spinnin wheels
Have a look at the Fast Ford mag, you can get it in Halfords, it is excellent, none of your plastic fantastic sh1te that you see in Max Power and the likes, just hard core Ford enthusiasts sticking huge power into their fords.
Saw one of those like you have with a Cosworth block and rear wheel drive conversion, think he had 350hp in it but it was ridiculous!!!
Good choice of engine too, the zetec is excellent and there is loads of turbo kits and internals available... there is some crowds out there that you can buy everything you need possible, starting from bare blocks.
As you probably know, check out Reyland too, the cosworth king... he's gone so far as to chop off the top of a YB and stick it onto another YB to increase the displacement :shock: and then stuck a skyline gearbox on it
He's a nutter!!
Anyway, keep us posted and good luck
