Hi mate nice xr2 , that engine mount you had made up was that for a silver top zetec engine as the zetec turbo engine you have is the series 3 (blacktop) zetec engine and the engine mount wont fit your nice new engine.

Great progress brian.

On the Heated front screen subject. Could you not take the wiring from say and XR2i / turbo as prob be relatively the same and just use a mk2 switch to keep it customary.

I did think of that mate but its trying to find a loom for the heated screen i did see one on ebay a while ago and it was some thing like Ł40 not in any rush so will keep my eye out but if one dont turn up i dont think it will be that hard to make on if it come's to it
