Im going to start with the engine as i finished it today . I bought this engine still in the car it was in and had a good drive through the country lanes and its fooooking fast the car was the mk2 Jimmy Mcrae 2006 stobert escort historic winner which you can see on you tube. After the test drive i waited while the engine was removed and took it home.
Engine was in superb condition but i took to bits sump off etc to have a look and it was as new so just a general tidy up new gaskets paint the block cam wheels, Sump , rocker cover , new leads all new bolts etc etc
