Some pictures of my sons Fiesta. We've had this for 7 years now first it belonged to son no. 1 who modified from a standard car to how it is today. It's now owned by son no. 2 and is still running a 1.1 but he's been gathering parts and maybe it will get the power to match its looks soon.

Yea plate cost a bit. Engine has arrived but it will be a few months before it's fitted.

Thanks for the positive comments it certainly gets plenty attention when it's out and about
Here's the plan
This is the fourth engine that has been bought to go in it so hopefully this time.

A little progress Engine cleaned and painted got to be worth 20 bhp and a shiny new flywheel Gearbox rebuild with RST LSD is next

it will be run on bike carbs with a nodiz ecu supplying the spark, I think the same company will supply the VVT controller. Throttle bodies would be great but they're way out of budget.

5 speed. Up until yesterday it was my spare B5 box that he was going to get rebuilt but he's looking into IB5 rear starter boxes to avoid cutting the sump. Anyone know if they fit ok

A little progress. Inlet manifold from dan st engineering and ecu have been purchased.

The carbs and manifold. Also got a alternator bracket and engine mount.

He is trying to keep the belt covers and they need a little work the clear the engine mount, nearly there.
He decided to make a bracket to suit the small alternator he has. Gearbox and lsd were dropped of at the repair shop on Friday.

Well yesterday the biggest piece off the plan came. We finally got a garage to do the work, it’s been with solicitors since October but now mine. So full steam ahead.

I can confirm that waxoyl goes on easier than it comes off

Anybody need a 52k 1.1 engine.

To escape the boredom of waxoyl cleaning he tried his 285 mm discs and 4 pots to see if they would fit behind the 13” wheels. Looks tight but doable.👍

They are wilwood 4 pots and will be on brackets made by my son ( mdf) prototyping is happening now! I think the discs are from a 4x4 Sierra and they have the correct offset.
He has a Mondeo servo and master cyclinder.
