Here are some news from the Fiesta that always rolls very well. So I reviewed the front gear as it was starting in lollipop so change the bearings before complete triangles and silent block bar in powerflex and it is day and night. As a result change of look for her
Before


AFTER


Then I am going to see for the manufacture of the 3 bars anti close in quick disassembly if I need to work on the engine here the cups for the shock absorber heads


Here is the rest of the work




Here are the sequences of the manufacture of the front bar





Here is an engine bay "almost" all clean

Welcome! Some nice little bits of fabrication done there.

Always liked 1.7-converted Fiestas, they seem to go quite well for such a cheap conversion.

Yes it is an inexpensive change for the gain. And with the gearbox of 1.6 it's a real treat

Nice car, I've seen this over on ZSOC. I have a zetec s myself, i will be looking to do an engine conversion this year. Undecided what to do at the moment whether i use the puma engine or something else. The 1.6 is quite expensive to modify.

Modifying an atmospheric engine is very expensive. After switching to 1.7 is simple and inexpensive. After you can go on a zetec 2l
