Mk1 fiesta zetec turbo
I've owed this for around 5 months now. When I got the car it was just a rolling sell with glass car did come with a couple of bits bumpers lights and dash.
When I got the car back home
I've repaired the inner wing and had to cut a mount out of a mk4 escort to fit as the mount had been cut out when I got the car. Plus had the passenger side strengthen up and made better as it was a bad job. So can fit the 5 speed gear box in.
All so moved the battery tray in the boot and put the bar across the boot which holds the boot carpet up and had a strut brace wield in.
Gear box side.
Engine bay is prepped ready for paint
Had my brother round to paint bay not the best pics
Had a full engine refurb
Had Qplaterst get me a inlet made of crazycage top job well happy with it
This is how the engine stands at the min.

Too many posts.. I need a life!!
i had one of the same and sold it due to the same issue,ideally there for rear mounted alternator cars or spin the turbo so the compressor housing points to the drivers side should work

Right thought I would do I update as I've finally got time today to get some work done on the car. Started the fueling system and mounted my radiator and charger cooler up today. Inlet bolted up. And dean with mk2 turbo sorted a manifold out for me so just fitted that in place just to see how much room I have to play with and where my wastegate and screamer pipe will go.
Tried one of deans comps on too
