i got the hubs together with the wheels.
but i do not know that much about them
i had a request on making up a set for some english dude one here.
but i will not take them of until after the season.then i probably will take the car of the road..and do some work on it.then i can try and make som drawings..and a price on a remake...

cheers dude

A friend of mine builds chassis's for GT40 replicas. He uses I think either 5 stud Granada hubs with centre lock adapters or makes them from scratch. If there is a demand I could ask what the costs might be.

He also owns a 7000 mile Escort Cos amongst his other toys.

Very cool. wanted to do this with the 19 inch version of mine. Designed the hubs but could never find the OZ rims

Good work and a pat on the back!

cheers

the specs are 2.0 litre low comp..haltech computer managment,turbonetics ball bearing turbo,wrc inlet manifold,bilstein coilovers,and some other stuff aswell

getting the inlet manifold out when the engine is still in , is not that bad,,as long as you remove the distributor or dizziless cap ,then you get to the bolts on the underside of the manifold pretty easy...abit narrow yeah..but no problem.ive been fixing cars that has got far less space to get your hands around.
