And this is how crowded it gets when you run the turbo








It makes cooling and intercooling very difficult and having huge power is something very narrow and very short doesnt make for a pleasant drive.

You'd be better off Zetecing or Duratecing or as Steven in the first pics has done, run a normally aspirated Cossie motor....

Keep an eye in Retro Ford mag as I am sure it will be featured in the coming months.

And the colour is actually Purbeck Grey, its just the lighting that makes it look all 'Millitary'

Neil typed before me (granted though his knowledge on these is far greater than mine )... even from the pics, the ammount of lashed on seam sealant is worrying...
