Ah no worries, you may be able to help with something else? How did you connect the fuel lines, as fiesta has a fuel line each end but puma has both at same end. I'm in middle of c

Got my wheels back and done a little trial fit.

i know stance isn’t very big in the ford community in general, not that I care, but it is more of a show purpose thing.

hope you guys like.

Came across a very rare S1600 rallye Puma inlet for sale so I had to make a buy.
these aren’t a direct fit and I tried my best to avoid completely cutting out the crossmember but it just wasn’t going to happen.
ill let the pictures do the talking.








So that’s the FRP inlet up for sale I guess

Little update
got most of the engine bay in black primer and I kind of like it how it looks

also had a little trip to Ford which saw me Ł170 lighter on subframe & rear beam bolts..
Got the rear beam on yesterday and will work on getting the subframe fitted this week, just need a few more bits before I can get it back on some wheels and outside for a proper clean and then I can look at completing the underside.

House move recently so had to kind of rush piece the fiesta back together to get it moved.
unfortunately couldn’t find a unit to store it until I find a new home, so the fiesta is currently on my grandads drive way.
was really fun being back in the drivers seat even though it was being towed the whole way lol.



Subframe & lower engine mount on

Hub, Discs and callipers fitted

Touchdown



Some bits dipped in carbon

Out the garage and on the move

Fiesta at my grandads house



Oh and got the engine out as it’s getting a turbo attached to it
