Post Escort Cosworth Full Re-Build - B1 ADD ** Small Update **

As some might now i started this over a YEAR ago, I have been slowly collecting parts, however i have almost everything i need to get her back on the road.

It started as small winter spruce up but as these things go, its all gone a bit mad!...

So it was put off for a while, and i made a decision to break my Saph for parts to help fund the Escos Project.

That was a sad day, but she will be re-carnated into the Escos as i have kept some of the parts and of course My number plate

A year down the line, but i have now cleared the garage ready to press on with the Escos

All the underside and engine bay has been stripped, any parts i dont need anymore sold on.

The car was running a Healthy 360 BHP on MSD Evo Software, so power was fine, it was just the rest that needed sorting.

So a quick rundown of main new parts:

PRO Alloy 500 Cooler
PRO Alloy Fuel Swirl Pot (external)
Bosch 023 (Mike R fitting kit) Bosch 044 Fuel Feed
Koni Adjustable Shox
Ahmed Bayjoo Track Spec Springs
Mike R Decamber Kit
New Poly Bushes
New Samco Hoses
New Rear Brakes

SECS Monitor and ACT Gauge

New Morrette Diamond Lense Head Lights
RS500 Grills and Smoked Indicators

Plus new Ford Supplied Side Lights for the Wings.

New window caps and bolts, gear stick and gaitor etc.

An various bits of Shiny Bling..

I am also going thru the whole car replacing anything i think i needs.

The whole underside is being painted whilst i am at it.

All the tanks,strut brace, cam cover, plenum etc are being powder coated at the moment.

So some pics of how it looks at the mo:









I am taking the head off this week and doing the head gasket just to be safe, as i dont want to do all this work then it goes

I Found out the head had been ported when i removed the plenum, so thought it would also allow me to see if the pistons or valves had been modded.

I am also having a the rear bumper and rear 1/4 panel painted as i manage to hit a fookin low post just before i took it off the road

Will keep the updates coming

Al..
