Hi all

Ok i brouht this off dingla rs about 2 weeks ago


and i've striped my 2wd saph cosworth to build the focus

First i'm going to test fit the engine,gear box,diff,prop,intercooler and rad to make sure it all fit ok before it go for paint.

Larst weekend i swaped all the running gear over and today i fitted the engine,rad and intercooler

That saph looked amazing mate, why did you decide to pull it apart rather than build the Focos in the background??

have you test fitted the wiper's now with the scuttle panel on now you've moved the motor or are you gonna make the arms longer?

focus 4x4

Does the wiper motor clear the pollen filter ???

dingla rs

iTrader: (2)

coulda just spaced the bed engine bed down mate

dlf3yburt

iTrader: (1)

not going to have a pollen filter as its only going to be a track car
and the scuttle fits fine as i'm going to make the arms longer.
dingla rs i did look into spaceing the engine down but didnt want the engine be to close to the floor

cheers

you have to love these cars as iv read your post about the spark plug lead hitting the wiper motor so i went out and put a lead in my motor and im happy to say im ok .i was going to run a cam triger like my 3dr but looking at it i dont think it will let me

whizzisat114

iTrader: (2)

Could you blank the rear breather off and put one at the front of the rocker cover ?

dlf3yburt

iTrader: (1)

Hi COLEYST200 you want to check when the wiper arm on the back of the motor go round it don't hit the lead

cheers

So glad this will live on, and quickly by the looks of things!
