hi people, wanted to know apart from the rear quarter windows what are there any differneces between the two shells ? my mates got a new xr4i shell so was thing of putting a cosworth engine in it is it possible ?

 

its not only possible its a bolt in job with no structural mods required

 

The basic chassis layout is the same, so if you want to put the cossie engine in it, it will ne simples

 

The box mounts(holes in car) are different, but no biggee, can easily be sorted.

From what I have seen all cars pre B reg have the narrow transmission tunnel but all later cars are the same shell irrelevant of which spec they were.

If its a pre B reg shell, it would require a bit of alteration to either the shell or the downpipe to fit.

 

Also bulkhead usually needs alteration to assist engine loom and abs from memeory.

 

i thought all 3dr shells were the same regardless of year of manufacture.

never heard of the narrow tunnels before
