Took off the head and all the MFI stuff already...
Waiting for the EFI head i'm working on at the moment
So much space over the gearbox... so finally some room for my oilcooler..

The space near the gearbox is great!!! I know!!! Plenty of room for a big filter and oil-cooler!
And how are things with the downpipe??

Involved is : you need a efi head, injectors, fuel rail, frst/efi or stand alone management, wiring loom adapted, efi inlet, EFI flywheel with cps and some more .... lots of Mfi--> Efi comversion topics here on PF ..

What bolts and gasket are you planing to use?
I've used felpro and standard RST head bolts as I was advised to use stretch ones, but to use them I had to machine the head in the place where bolts sit to go deeper by 8 mm

I'm making it from old EFI loom and I'm using no relay board And at the moment I'm stuck with fidle valve so was wondering maybe Gregor has thought about it already.

Did some work again...
reground the valves/valveseats, put on new valvestemseals, put on the springs+valves,cam, thermostathousing and adj pulley.
Weird thing is the cam looks a littte off-set... but seems to have ran like this the whole time so shouldn't be a problem.
Got the bolts for the head and some other gaskets and nuts from the ford dealer.
Now waiting for the headgasket from burton so all can go on the bottom end

While waiting for the headgastket , started to renew the brakelines as something wasn't right in the lines that were there.... the brakes didn't respond verry well so all new lines in there with a wilwood brake bias valve for the rear..
some pics..
When the cos brakes are reconditioned they're coming back on with the braided hodes
