No too sure about the RS turbo gearbox tho - reckon an evo box would go on with a bit if work.

Transverse them YBs boys why fuck about with zetecs when you can have the proper engine

Because a zetec is lighter, cheaper to buy, cheaper to source parts for and a silver top will go in with very minor modding.

But the YB cam cover looks good
