As I was driving 200 km each day the twincam was running on LPG. I always wanted a faster Sierra, but a Cosworth wasn't suitable for the long distance or LPG. Therefore I got the idea to fit a 2.9 V6 and run that on LPG. So I bought a 2.9 12v Granada mk3 with a manual box.

The goal was to put this engine and gearbox in the Sierra. The original twincam had done 252.000 km and still going strong, but a V6 is nicer.
