Just been reading through this, done well fella.

Only bad thing i spotted is this gasket you used. Really should use ford ones as they have a fire ring round the edge of the ports.

cheers mate yeah ive had a couple of these over the years and love the 80's style! the 1.6 cvh engine is a bit dated compared to newer cars but this engine is certainly fine for this fiesta

but i dont think a servo will fit due to the space restraints and you would also have to re-pipe the car with a bias valve
