hi all ive got a fiesta st its running 210 bhp fwd its got a l cosworth cams cosworth inlet quilfi atb diff

but am thinking off going the superghaged route maybe 360 bhp and am thinking i need to go rwd to make use off the power and it would be megga for sideways

. ive looked all over the net and cant find eney links for going rwd in a mk 6 fiesta . i looked at the cattram 7's
running duratec rwd they have a bellhousing that meets the ib5 new sierra diff on race line site.... what do u lot think good or bad???? i want it to look like a standerd st ive seen the cosworth conversions but i think the duratec is getting good power and keeps getting better so that what i think is best. are there companys out there that would do a conversion?????? thanks think 2010 is gonna be a good year with this in the pipe line

Would be a big job to turn the engine round and put a rear tunnel and diff etc in. M K is building a 4x4 cosworth power MK6 Fiesta, have a look in the resto room.

Good luck and start a thread in the projects room if you do go ahead.

No point getting a bellhousing for an ib5 if you plan 360 bhp

would be a good conversion i think but you will need deep pockets though mate. i would get hold of a mk6 shell though to do it and not destroy a good st fiesta.
you can use a mazda 6(i think) gearbox and cossie rear end. andy gallacher would be perfect choice for the fab work.

ib5 is a fwd box so dunno where you got the info that you would need that!!
