Benni the sound of an engine being good or not is a matter of opinion NOT fact. So when you get on your high horse about it you just sound like an un-educated mongolid.

The spelling of my insult has gone from bad to worse. You could of copied and pasted it, I wouldn't of minded. You are right, it started out as an opinon when I said about removing the V6 engine. In my opinion this would be sacrilege, and I'm sure many agree.Then, he went on to call me a monogolongoid or whatever it was he attempted to insult me with. It was not me getting off my horse, for I was insulted for having such an opinion. He could of disagreed, but instead he tried to be smart and failed.

Benni.

Benni dont be such a young slip of a lad.

As if removing a fornicating dull v6 in a very low state of tune and replacing it with a 500 bhp plus YB is sacrelidge! Both Hadlands Mondeo and Kev's Engine in a mondeo would defacate down the throat of the stock v6 in terms of noise and performance. I think you'll find my little button that most people will agree with me.

When was the last time you stood next to a 500bhp YB at WOT?

Quite a few times and I prefer the V6. This was my opinion and then you went on to insult me and in the process, did nothing but insult yourself.

Benni, Kev asked which car his 500bhp engine should go in, I said Mondeo.......nobody cares about a 220bhp v6....give up. Mondeo isnt such a bad plan seeing as Hadland has had fairly impressive results so if its a bad idea go tell him. Perhaps I should have said ST Kitted Base model Mk3 mondeo, then you'd have shut the fuck up!

Nobody cares? Wrong. However, a replica wouldn't be a bad idea. Until, in my own opinion of which I am entitled too, he came past and it didn't sound as good as I expected.

Benni.

Just to add, as IF I care about an internet site! Of the limited amount of members i've met off her i'm sure you wont get a bad report off any of them...I certainly dont need to earn respect from it, so dont make out you're holier than thou when it comes to respect and behaviour on here.......after all its not like I have respect from seeing pictures of my shits, or naked with my button knob hanging out on the crapper or with a toothbrush up my ass is it. You gormless oaf, how can I treat anyone who's posted up the shit you do with anything other than contempt!

You're right, it told me all about respect. How I made out I am perfect, something I've not mentioned or said once. So in reality, it never told me at all. At this moment in time, it is coming up to 10 O clock. You've been told. (The time). But, still, you've been told.

deff not a focus

rofl @davies clip

i,m still liking the old granada scorpio idea, it would be more or less a straight fit with a pair of 2.0 granada engine mounts etc.....
just for the comedy factor.....i did something similar 15 years ago, i dropped a 330bhp cossie engine and running gear into a scrapper of a 1.6L Creg sierra, and went to knockhill hot hatch day with it....you could see folk sniggering at the car as they walked past...till it had been out on the track

if you cand o the granada cheap enough, without spending loads like you did on the escort and sierra then go for it

would be a laff for the summer, just get some decent transmission again, 4wd granada would be good aswell
