Well as some of you know the fiesta will not be ready in time for Croft so I bought this in cheap to track instead, then tidy up and sell

Here IT is





Uprated the brakes to RST calipers, grooved disks and Redstuff pads and replaced brake fluid, stops really well now





Ripped the engine out today as it was a weezy 1600 CVH MFI unit, sourced a nice 67k miles mondy lump, with all ancillaries and MTX box for £70






The MTX box is now going into the fiesta to better cope with the new change in engine spec

Have all parts just about to get her running, plenty of late nights though as I'm back on shift tomorrow

Well had a half decent day today with fat.boy.capri, had to do loads of running about for bits and bobs and waiting for a engine hoist didnt help

Here's one of Mr slim himself



Not a bad day concidering had to change oil pick up pipe and sump, drill out flywheel bolt holes, change water pump to 1800 one etc. Fitted new cambelt also Cheers to Fatty for the graft and mad dog youngy for lending us the work horse (scariest van have ever been in )

Bri.

Don't know what he was doing



Don't under estimate the power of a 2ltr zetec running on ????? std ford management with a few tweeks and no the engine from you is in the back of the fiesta

I gave 350 for the car with a few months tax 69k miles before speedo got changed solid underneath too

Bri.

 

i will have to give big cheers to lee f4t boy capri from sspc for doing lots of craft on bris shitter

 

nice one mate you'll notice some difference with the zetec, especially on the track!

 

Well two days on track have taken its toll on her Due to oil serge problems and constantly getting pulled into the pits by the marshals for a smokey exhaust I had to run slightly less oil in her

The end result 2nd last session on the sunday......... tap tap tap...... bang bang bang went the big ends

Think It supprised a few people on track though

Bri.

 

Bri the car did exactly what you wanted it to do for you this weekend, you hade a good laugh in it and it got you to the end..

steve
