Red face Cosworth engine into a 1956 Ford Popular 103e

Hi! Have started a full restoration of a 1956 103e Ford Popular. Was considering putting in a Cosworth engine and was wondering if anyone has done that before and could offer any help, or know where I could get any information? Thanks!

That anglia looks amazing!

Have you cut down a sierra floorpan and used that as your base?

No, the back is as i built it years ago for sprints and hillclimbs.
just english axle, single leafs, coil overs, limited slip, panard rod, tramp bars. Haven't touched the rear yet just concentrated on the rest of the build will see how it goes before desiding what to do with the rear. The pics that i uploaded were taken the other day , Have plenty of build stage pics but my computer has broke, so soon as fixed will load some more on.
