Default Escos clocks????
Did any escort cosworth come with 150mph clocks as standard or did the rally cars use 150mph clocks??? Thought they were all 170mph clocks??

The ones on ebay claiming to be rally ones seem like normal escos ones to me? Go upto 170mph by the looks of it.

They must be the Mk5 3i ones like you say and if he does get more money for them then good luck

Too right its out of order, hence the good luck to him selling them as hopefully most people like yourself will check first before buying for an escoss

They are genuine escos clocks mate, not 3i ones. He told me that 'they are standard escos clocks that have been changed to 150 for rally regulations'.

But if you look at the pic and compare with some other escos clocks and follow the numbers round, it still seems to go round to 170.
