Can you still get full sets of rubber mats for the MK1s,,,not the aftermarket floor mats only ??
I think I mean the moulded type

Nice job on the arches, mines still dreaming!! did you blend them in yourself?

Floors cleaned and coat of metal primer




New dash panel sat in place to see if fit is ok




New wheels fitted and splash of blue paint before the final choice of colour is made


Need to start on the interior next

I was wondering if the Mexico stripes fit ok over the bubble arches ? or does it distort them ??

[alancdavis]

Could do with advice as to the best fuel pump set up for my Zetec running twin 45 webbers

Thought of twin pumps in parrellel to actas a back up and move the filter and pressure reg from under the bonnet to the boot

Any advice will be welcome

My zetec ran 45 webers Alan and ran fine up to 180bhp for 3 years, with a single red top Facet pump in the boot, and i then had a filter king regulator under the bonnet.

This will be fine.

I guess I will need to repipe the fuel line as it looks like it has been done in copper breke pipe
The plan is to run new steel braided pipe through the car so what will be the best bore to use ?

Guess you need to see what fittings you get with pump and regulator and go from there. Id say they will most likely be 8mm
