[tonyt]

after taking the engine out AGAIN turbo and manifold
finally on

[tonyt]

yes m8 i popped it ,get the bottom end back saturday now a ive just spoke to the guy .not taking the **** m8 but are your ally top mounts round the right way buddy?looks like the circlip is at the top thats all.same as mine and mine go other way round.looking very nice tho m8

as far as i know paul they are the right way round,got them from
compbrake,can you post a pic of yours so i can see cheers tony

[paul andrews]

dont know if these will help tony

[tonyt]

cheers paul have checked and they are different mine have a sleeve
on top where the top hats fit and the c/clip is at the bottom.
had me thinking there mate hope you get yours sorted soon. are you using a 200 or 205 block.

[paul andrews]

glad yours is ok m8,mines a long stud 200 block m8,forged pistons etc...
where did you get your inlet plemium from m8,i only ask as i have just ordered one from mike rainbird with a wrc 70mm throttle body.i know that there are a few people making them thats all cheeRS

[tonyt]

picked it up on ebay mate new in box £200,nightmare to fit to inlet
sandwich plate they are, you have to drill out holes on inlet as the plenum
is tapped and bolt them the opposite way through the inlet into the plenum
but saying that for the price cant complain

[tonyt]

bit more progress on the escort,gearbox finally fitted
tried to use a cradle from a 3 door cosworth but would
have needed to much modification we finally managed using
a 1.3 automatic cradle so were able to use the original mounting
points rather than drill the floors.center had to be cut out and
new rubber mount postion fabricated.
all to do now is make a surround for the shifter

[paul andrews]

fuel lines and brake fittings
