Transit Connect ST
Thought I might upload a few pictures of what I have started doing recently. As some of you may know I am the owner of an 05 plate Transit Connect TDCI 90PS. Sadly whilst on a trip to see my Dads Plane in Hampshire it died
Thankfully those boys in Orange were on hand to drag me home -
Anyway to cut a long story short I have decided to convert the van to Petrol. I wanted to run Focus RS Mk1 Engine, Gerbox and Running Gear but sadly they are to expensive and too difficult to source. As a result I have purchased a 2.0 Duratec from an ST170.
All of the above are currently enroute via the Uk Pallet Delivery Service and should arrive imminantely. As a result I have now started to strip down the Van.
The intention is to get it back up and running ASAP as having no van is actually quite ifficult with it being my daily driver. As such the van will in essence be a standard ST170. I think once that is done I will look to buy a second Duratec 2.0 and tubocharge it with a view to edging out those Focus RS's that are out there.
I already own some Brembo six pots which were going to be for my Cortina but have decided to put them on the van.
I will keep you all updated on my progress. (If you like that it !)
Chris
