Default Mondeo RS?

Has anyone put a cossy lump in a mondeo? not heard of anything like it, not really part of the ford scene, but seeing as the new arrival is a ford, i thought i might try my hand at something a bit silly (as with my astra)

Also, what is the YB? is that the 2 litre 16v T?

Cheers

Martin Hadland built one ages ago. Qiuck 4x4 400odd bhp or something along those lines! Think its even in one of Jeremy Clarksons videos

So the YB is the cremé de la cremé as far as the ford turbo units go yeah? Kindof like the rather special Vauxhall redtop?

It was a 500bhp+ monster car. It won the Revs Topspeed challenge and loads of other mad things. FAST car

Bad piccy... it looked alot better on 18' Rondells



Its for sale

I'm a big fan of the Vaux engine, great thing and tunable. But its not on the same planet as the YB lump. The STANDARD crank and Rods can easily take around 8300rpm, 600bhp+
