hi all
i need help to finish my 2 yr struggle in restoring my 3 dr cosworth.
At this stage i'm stuck on the fuel and brake line's
i need to replace all the said pipe's due to the condition of the old one's (stupid me throw them in the bin). Fords (WHO?) can't tell me the specs, so i can make them up. Can anyone please help with this?

 

when i made mine i just gut some old ends off of a scrappy car worked out what the lenght of braid pipe i needed with abit of string then gave it to the guy. made them with in a week with correct ends and correct length pipe.

i would of though the best thing to do is get as many of the thread nips as possible then work out what lenght you need and get braid aload of braid sets made up.

failing that find an old donor serria as i would imagine the pipe configuration is the same in most parts.

 

UNless you are going for the original and concourse look, I would do as said above and go for fully braided. It won't be a huge amount more expensive and there are plenty of people on here to make them up for you. I would suggest Brom at Zoo, he'll be able to put a complete kit togther for you and maybe include a bias valve so you adjust the pressure to the rears

 

well i was trying to go concourse but if i can't get the pipes done then i've got no hope of that, i am trying to find a donor 3dr to buy the pipes.
many thanks

 

a company that restored my 3dr might be able to help. its called moorland classic cars but they are up in stoke on trent, i'll try and get a phone number if your interested

 

Give Paul @ NORTH YORKS RS SPARES a shout, he breaks 3 doors etc and bound to be able to help
