what difference is there between a 2L i ghia sierra (for example) and 2wd saff cos in the way of engine -box and diff mounts? . is the cos stuff a straight swap fitment wise?

 

come on girls im about to start cutting the tunnel in my 944 and need to know what non cosworth sierra i need to buy to cut up and graft to the 944 that will then (after its tested) accept all 2wd cos stuff. a minute of your time ?

 

AFAIK it's all the same apart from Cossie Sierra having larger cut outs for wiring looms.

 

so a 2l dohc saff would be spot on then. just need to find one close by now , not as many about nowdays.

 

get yourself down to Loom's - there's loads in there

Are you sure there isn't room in the tunnel you've already got ? It would be a hell of a lot easier making up local mounts/reinforcements for the rear beam, gearbox, and prop centre joint, than fitting a complete sierra floorpan, if that's what you are intending to do.

 

hows it going mate . its more so ive got something to work to and all the bits there at hand. plan is to use bits of the sierra floorpan where needed/possible rather than fab all new brackets but untill theyre both in the air theres no knowing . what/wheres looms?

 

I dont think you'd need a saff, any mk2 sierra would do. They've all got the same floor pan iirc.

 

good good scrapyard search is on then

i'm in newark and someone round the corner from me has been trying to pedal a K plate "cossie rep" saff for £295ono for a while, if thats any help
