All down to John, used an old Focus Zetec lead and swapped over to the motorsport cable. Clears the wiper mechanism and you won't be able to see it anyway

Some engine pics after a bit of a clean and a long morning drive to carry on with running her in.
Nice close up of the problematic wiper linkage and custom lead to avoid it
No better roads and weather to start running her in

Nice to see it back in there were it should be but two bits of criticism you need to take positively why have you not sorted that rusty front panel as lets it down when you lift the bonnet and all the plumbing is all over the place like the breather tank rear right its on the piss . You and your mate have done a very very nice job on the motor then it looks like you have just thorw it in there . Sorry for saying it like i have but thats the way i see it

Oh no, its taken possitively I've always put the panel off to focus on other bits, but when I originally ordered one they were not in stock, but I have a white one that'll be bead blasted and painted before fitting.
The breather tank IS on the piss without a doubt, but that's now because there's less room due to a Group A coil. But the plan is to relocate it behind the power steering header tank. But it will be modified to adapt aeroquip and braided lines first.
These are all academic, as its all plumbed in as neatly as possible to allow me to run it in first. But I hardly think it looks like its just been "thrown in there"
Oh, and the old manky fuel regulator is being replaced
Cheers for the comments!

Can you utalise the dead space next to the heater box intake, under the n/s scuttle panel for the coil?
That's where im gonna put my coil pack
Good luck with the running in stage , look forward to seeing the car at the pod at classic?

Coming from you Benni, I really doubt I should take anything you say seriously as always, even after failing to see what was said prior to that post! Would love to meet you though but doubt you'd ever come of your decrepid hole long enough to say anything to someones face
@ whizzisat114
Conteplated it mate, but I left the coil there because the plan was already in place to relocate the breather. Not like me to do a half assed job on my cars But as for your idea, its spot on but I didn't want issues with excess water flow from the windscreen to fall over it.
@ gav
Oh yeah deffo, but believe me its nice to just drive and hear it again at any rpm than have it sitting. Love every minute of it

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Love this car, it's awesome the way that really there's no hint to what's under the bonnet, just a nice looking focus lowered over a nice set of wheels, would love to build something like this

@ Scarnny

I'm going back this weekend to fetch it hopefully and then really get some miles on it quickly. Work really does take too much of my time and sanity!

Believe me, you look like Ron Weasley from Harry Potter only less Intimidating, saying something to your face wouldn't be an issue.

Oh poor little retard, best humour you before you start having a hissy fit....owned by Benni 
But apparently everyone in here has their tongue stuck up someones ass according to you.....but to normal people, we call them friends. But I can understand a billy like you wouldn't understand that concept
But out of curiosity Benni, do you actually drive or go to shows? Or are you this fat gollum lookalike that trolls around every forum trying to make everyone as miserable as your sorry ass is???? I really doubt you'd ever have the balls to square up to anyone you've slagged off emphatically on this forum, for several reasons which are all too obvious to everyone on here. You're a dickless wonder without a doubt and I pitty you......and Ron doesn't wear glasses dipshit

But got a good few miles on it before I came back. But going to fetch it over the weekend to get some serious miles on it with work over the next week or so. So hopefully get it all mapped up. Happy enough to meet up with you pal, but when is Classic Ford Day again?

No can do with that date boys, I'm getting married on the 4th June. Can't very well up and leave the missus to go play with cars, don't think she'd appreciate it and probably take my car off me for it
I'll be at Ford Fair without a doubt, as usual. Other than that, anything before I'll be at hopefully as well as a Ring trip
