Default Lloyds SHP RSR Mk1 Escort

After classic ford, at Santa Pod, Lloyd was asked by someone to add a build thread on here so they could see what his car looked like at the beginning. Here are the pictures and hope you all enjoy them.

Plans have changed, engine is now a 2.8 huyabusa engine fitted to a Quaife 69G gearbox, paddle shift, stack dash Lloyd will add more when he comes along.

As its the 2.8 and not 2.6 the engine was 450 bhp and around 250 lbs ft. But Lloyd would be happy with 420bhp as thats what there quoted of making?

He will be along and add the correct fiqures as this is all from memory, and i could be wrong lol

Thanks for the comments , the engine is the very same as the radical sr8 apart from the fact this engine has been taken out to 2.8 and a little gas flowing has taken place but utilizing the standard Suzuki valve sizes and stroke from the original. Hopefully achieving 450 bhp and 270 lb ft and revving to 10500 rpm and will hopefully end up with a car weighing nearer to 700kg than 750 kg.
