This is like the autoshow preview for some of us engine geeks.



Just FYI

FEV is a company and
EMV is an acronym for Electro-Mechanical Valves

Looks like the engine bay of a CDW27 with a Turbo 2.0 and a new head design. Am I just way off?

I believe it is a 93-96 Mondeo, but I could be wrong.

What I know for sure is that this is an valve independent CVVL (Continually Variable Valve Lifting) and that it had GDI (Gasoline Direct injection

Yes, the valves are electronically lifted (and lowered). The fear of power failure is not so bad since I believe the zetec is non-interference (or at least in this case)

I have no clue if this is turbo-ed or not, but it is not likely in my opinion. GDI's tend to run really high compression anyway.

BTW the CSVT was slated for some of the fun tech stuff, but cost won out. Everything on the SVT is pretty much off the shelf.
