Hey there,
Have just embarked on a cosworth install on my Mk1 escort and found Passionford, though Id say hello and share a few pictures of the car



It is a race only car utilising not many original ford parts bar shell, front struts and steering column.
I Am originally Australian but currently reside in London and am building a 200 block and 4wd headed Yb with t34 or t35 turbo. I am collecting parts and looking for a machinist in and around the london area who can do the basic machinging for a freshen up plus long studding the block.
I look forward to chatting away.
cheers,
Justin P

Car looks like it is in Aus? Are you in London buying bits to take back to fit to the car? Sounds like a plan!

Fantastic Escort.

Yeah its in Australia, awaiting my return with the cossie motor. Thought while I was posted here I might as well take advantage of locals knowledge of the 'twin cam turbo pinto'. Looking for smaller parts, sensors, manifolds and a machinist in and around london.
Thanks for the comments,

Just a pure race circuit car mate. Too far gone to ever be suitable onthe raod. Couldnt afford the tyres, only last 500KM's as it is.
