My power flow exhaust I brought of the bay not bad for Ł50



Started to clean it but its the Missus birthday so have to finish another day

Then spent hours and hours polishing it think it worth it what you think ?

 

Looking good mate im starting my engine swap tonight

 

Cheers, going paint my beam again tonight then I can crack on, good luck with the engine change not looking forward to doing mine

 

Will keep an eye on this. All sounds good and if thats all hand polished......nice 1.

 

Cheers yes it was all hand polished

 

Any updates mate?Ive got the 2litre blacktop in the Mk4 fiesta now just got to finish a few things

 

Not a lot just got my beam painted up started to put the bushes in, but they were a pain in the arse, need to order some more bits so I can crack on, did the engine go in ok

 

Nice exhaust at a bargain price.

 

Weren't too bad needed a hell of a clean thou

 

The engine went straight in.Mondeo inlet and still using the rear mounted alternator

 

When is it going to be running?

 

Hope fully tomorrow or monday.Ive got a pic of the engine bay if you want to see it

 

Yes mate if you don't mind

 

Here you go mate.Im yet to fit the loom,ecu,drive shafts,and i need a starter motor yet and sort the exhaust out.Ive got the holidays to sort it out yet lol

 

Looks good mate just all the annoying jobs to do now lol, need to put my engine in soon really need to buy a crane

 

Picture is a bit small lol

 

No need for a crane mate

 

I took my old one out without a crane never again I did it alone, I wanna clean it all up before I put it in lol

 

Its just the fanny bits now.I didnt think i was gonna get this far to be honest.Im still using original mounts as well.Get some pics up of yours

 

There's not a lot to look at am the mo just a bare shell if you click the link at the top all my pics are there

 

Any updates mate?ive got the engine running now lol just need to sort my exhaust out

 

Not a lot mate stripped rear brakes down, and found out I need new shoes handbrake cable brake lines , so I need to start spendingalso fitted the floflex bushes and the fit like shit so might have to replace them sounds like your days better then mine lol

 

Its not been bad.If you was closer to where i lived i would help you lol

 

Well that's cars for ya init

 

why not upgrade them then to bigger drums or discs?

 

Not thought of it tbh, may do at a later date

 

Abs fiesta drums are bigger than non abs and you can pick the whole setup from the scrapys less than its gonna cost to replace yours with new.

 

Iv got abs drums as I'm using a mk5 beam

 

UPDATE TIME!!!
Finally got the rear shocks and beam bolted into place, just waiting on brake shoes and braided hose the I can crack on

( has anyone got any pics of fiesta petrol clips(underside) please as I need to order some

 

Ream beam fitted
