Brilliant build.
hope you don't mind but you've inspired me too have a go at a very similar conversion myself for my track S1. Currently on MFI. I'm thinking Omex600 because it seems pretty straight forward to put together .
I've got a load of questions tbh but i don't want to bore you too much.. (yet)
i've got a set of Deka injectors like yours and an XR3i manifold / spacer plate, my injectors seem to be a snug fit in the fiesta fuel rail and sandwich plate already ( with the orings on) , do i actually need to drill the pockets out like you did or is there another reason why you did it.

Found out why the boost hose keeps coming off at only 9psi ..my brand new set of competition vibra technics mounts I bought 2 years ago and only just fitted for the build has ripped the front gearbox one in half.
#1628
will you upgrade the lot Mat ?
#1629
Definitely worth doing the gearbox one mate. Remember you saying that my engine doesn't move well I have the gearbox one ony car.

well here is the bad boy that was causing me issues . I've moved over and fitted land Rover V8 mounts at £7.50 delivered and have just had 400 miles of abuse deliberately trying to break them and they haven't and they feel loads better on the car than the vibra Technics ..MaRk at MK motorsport send me pics of my wrc style bladed ARB and is going to make me some TCaS like these to match . on sunday I took the car on a 200mile round trip round North wales with mi little foot soldier .. car never missed a beat in the last 400 miles . my coilovers should be here this week all so ,
