Langley mate,
cheers exhaust is loud and deep, its designed for an XR3i but we modified it to suit - worth it though and relatively straightforward.
Just finished my own attempt at a bad boy bonnet - gonna have it sprayed soon.
Five speed got fitted with other engine, goes really well now and quick shift is great for racing about.
The dash is from an XR3i and clocks are from an Eclipse, featuring rev counter. Pretty easy to do and massive improvement. Just a bit of joining wires - give me a shout if you get stuck!
CVH is the way to go, eventually it will be turbo'd with a Zetec bottom end!!
