Quickshift fitted too but its hitting exhaust which I don't seem to be able to avoid as RS2K system has a kink to avoid this which mine doesn't. Last shifter on it was 1" shallower so didn't hit :s

Plus I need to gunk up exhaust join now as its blowing lol

Got new bib too but collect at FF from Ian.

Hi bud, depends on what car/bulk head clearance you have tbh as the thermostat housing is an issue with clearance.

if you have no clearance you'd be best fitting a 2.3 as the 2.3 head has the water way on the side of it, can't remember what the 2.0 Scorpio's did though as they would have had same issue. I have a 2.0 Scorpio engine in a garage, I'll have a look at it for you.

Injection wise use standard RS injectors in the Scorpio inlet system or make / buy a custom inlet, www.ALDevelopments.com would make you one to fit.

Hope that helps, as said I'll go look at the 2.0 I have for you too.
