The Zetec can be identified by its silver cam cover with "DOHC 16v" on the bottom left. The Zetec-E has "ZETEC 16v" on the bottom left, and the Zetec-R has a black plastic cam cover. The Focus RS and ST170 (SVT) are both Zetec-R engines, despite being branded Duratec. Production of the Zeta family lasted from September 1991 through December ...
The Cosworth EC is a Cosworth-built and Ford-financed 8-cylinder, 3.5-litre racing engine that was used exclusively by Benetton in the 1994 Formula 1 World Championship under the name Ford Zetec-R. Michael Schumacher won the driver's world championship with the EC this year.

The new Cosworth WAA [31] engine also was Cosworth's first one-piece head, i.e. the camshaft carrier was cast integral with the head itself. Again the constraints of the existing head-bolt pattern meant that Hall had to shift the camshaft bearings from outside each pair of cam lobes as in the BDA to in between each cylinder's pair of cam lobes.
The car was closely based on its predecessors, the B192 and B193, and powered by a Ford Zetec-R V8 engine (produced by Cosworth but funded by and badged as a Ford), designed and developed by Geoff Goddard. The electronic driver aids that had such an effect on F1 over the previous seasons were banned, so the car had to be redesigned with the new ...
After an encouraging performance in 1995 with a full-works Ford V8 engine, 1996 did not confirm the progress Sauber had made during 1995 because as the team developed the troublesome Zetec-R V10, problems with the new unit's power delivery resulted in the team scoring only 11 points, despite the theoretical power advantage over a V8. That score ...
The successor to the HB was instead an eight-cylinder engine that took over some of the details of the unrealized V-12 Cosworth. Released exclusively by Benetton in 1994 and bearing the internal designation EC, it was marketed as the Ford Zetec-R. Benetton driver Michael Schumacher won with the EC his first driver's world championship this year ...
In 1997, Minardi teamed up with engine manufacturer Brian Hart. For the 2000 season the team were forced to use 1998-spec Ford Zetec-R V10 engines, which were rebadged as Fondmetal engines in deference to his financial input. However, Rumi's poor health forced him to withdraw his backing at the end of the season.
