vroooom ptssssh

Glad to see you still have it Smit, was wondering the other day if you were still around here and if you had it! looking great too

Smit

That's correct Glenn, it's been 340bhp since Harvey completely rebuilt the engine in 2002.

13/14yrs of faultless engine running, as as everyone knows I don't drive like Miss Daisy either lol

Very kind words Matt thank you might make an appearance at Classic Ford in June but will give you a heads up before hand

Cheers Dave, good to see your still about aswell

Good quarter mile time that for the power your running.

Its bollocks what people say about cossie engines been unreliable. Mines been ok for 10 years. I dont drive like a divvy but i dont kick its head in all the time either.

When the old engine let go I was really u decided on what route to take.

Have to say thanks to Rainbird really as he made me splash out and have the engine done by a professional. Was a lot of money at the time but I simply cannot complain about how reliable it has been. Only thing really I've had issues with is gearboxes. After getting through 4/5 normal ones I decided to splash out and get a CTS Bernie box and haven't looked back

What the CTS bernie box like then. Does it have stronger gears.

Smit

iTrader: (5)

Yes, goes from stage 1 to stage 4. I've only got stage 1 which has shot peened gears and uprated syncros..... Was under Ł1k a total bargain!
