Buy the ford motor - keep it ford!!!
Easier to rebuild and can handle more power when you want - just look at all the koenigseggggggggggg. Alloy block ls motors - score a bore/spin a bearing? Badnews! New block - ok if in Aus or Us where they are EVERYWHERE but in UK?? Not sure.

c what your saying lincoln
but to fit that cobra motor would mean loosing 2 inches out of the bulkhead
frankly i aint prepared to do that ,
i know the ls will fit with no mods to engien bay needed ,
and for now 400 hp and 400 ftlb is more than enough considering what i want the car to do
rember this is my road toy , not out n out racer

have the measurements for the ls engine tim ,
the ls series engines are all alloy , steel crank , titanium rods , all heads,
right now folks my heads up my arse , karl and a few other peeps reckon its needs a yb,
or its not really an rs without one , me , i could go either way , and the missus just wants me to pic lol ,
im soooooooooooooo undecided right now , im certain the ls will fit , but will it require any moddin ??
and untill i get it i wont know , where as obviously the yb is fit n forget ???
arrrrrrrrghhhhhh , either way the cranks off for a polish today and the rods are having there new little ends fitted ,
ohh and me and the wench are moving into our new place mid september, and i get my own tinkering room lol !!!
so plan is to just start refurbing all the bit n bobs , then have them all there for a day of engine building
beef
ill take opinions on yb or ls please lol

If you go v8 are you going rwd or 4wd?
Id go yb but there is some thing kinda original about a big fat v8 shoe horned in there
The shock value would be great when you opened up the bonnet

Mate, stop bitching and bang the LS in. No one has done it (to my knowledge) and a mk3 400brake v8 scort will kick the living shit out of a 400 brake YB'd escort. Instant power, no lag. Have you driven a decent v8 motor mate? If you haven't i suggest you do.
Don't get me wrong i fecking love yb's etc but just think for the money the LS range is the way to go for a bastard fast, horribly reliable and individual motor.

love you work so far, dont take this the wrong way but i wouldnt put a v8 in it, just wouldnt look right in there, if there was two S1's at a show one with a v8 an other YB, the v8 wouldnt would make me go wow, but the YB one in the other hand id be glue to it, sorry just my view on it

Did'nt beefy say the letters on diff cover need to be raised not recessed???
I'd go ls route.... different, stronger and more potential in the future......
