So, Thursday I had an appointment for the MOT, but Wednesday I found out that the engine really started to leak,

and after a while of searching the cylinderhead removed, and then turned out the camshaft barrier was leaking so new barrier in, and new head gasket fitted again yesterday, and turned out the timing belt wasnt on time,timingbelt now on time and the engine runs so much nicer and quieter now! Now only needs tweaking ,and make a new appointment for MOT, here are some pics

nice one mate looks very clean. You should bring it over the European Ford Event. So we can have a good look at it. For you and for me its a small drive to the FlevOnice location near Biddinghuizen

For sure hopefully with both of my cars with MOT Fiesta XR2 mk2 and escort mk3 RS1600i. In my opinion the Ford event in Netherlands and outside of it. Only Ford Fair stays at higher point on my wish list

welded up the cutout





also had to change the cvh mount on the car,as the engine sat to high,so welded a new one

engine still sits a bit high,but fitted the bonnet to see if it would fit and it does!!
also got plenty of room at the waterpump this way





so now have to do the wireing and plumbing
