A few updates in one here.....

Today this happened



With only 2 trolley jacks....



Need to work out spacing the rad and intercooler setup, but I expect first step is ditch the bonnet release cable, fit removable slam panel, and lockable aero catches







New slam panel, originally fitted to one of the uk's fastest zetec turbos, hopefully it gives me some good luck!

Small update

Got the downpipe back today and fitted it on



Followed by the alternator, mainly because i suddenly panicked that the downpipe was going to foul it. All clear tho.



Done a few more bits recently and starting to feel a bit more complete!

Bolted the fuel filter bracket in, the ERST item is massive!



Fitted the big aluminium radiator, and removable slam panel



And finally the pace escort charge cooler i picked up the other day. First boost hose went straight on, and only a little fucking around to fit the other. Back to being a proper sleeper with no stupid intercooler hanging out the front.



Also got the air filter in



Did a few more other jobs that i didn't take photos of. Gear linkage, alternator wiring, mounted ecu.
