Should you not have a hard copper pipe from caliper to strut then the flexi connects from that to your inner wing?

I'm having trouble finding a rear seat for my mk1 escort, will a mk2 escort rear seat fit the same. It's a 2 door. Thanks in advance

Is there any chance of posting this as I'm not going to be able to get down there, if so how much is it going to cost me?

Thanks for the replies, the red one sounds good Steve but your a few miles from me, I'll see if I can get down there weekend and give you a ring

I'm looking for a rear seat for an escort mk1 2 door, anything considered. Not sure if mk2 seats would fit?? Thanks

ive had an lsd fitted into my atlas axle and have been told that i cant use the old bolts to secure the crown wheel to it as they are too short. they only go in about 5 mm or 5-6 turns. the lsd is quite alot thicker then the the original planet gears. where can i get the proper bolts from, and what have other people done?

nice pics sam

excellent pics mate

i couldnt find anything about black plates mentioned, what is the cut off year for them then, there fine on a mk1 escort arent they, want to get some done tomorrow?

thats what i thought to be honest, but the asking price is 6k

looking at a mk2 rs2000 which will come with a full ticket. its fairly solid but will need work on the strut tops and doors, bonnet and roof. but im told it has been reshelled in its life into a non rs shell. ive been watching a few on ebay and the asking price has been 7k plus for very tidy examples but with none or little bids. so what should this be worth????

thanks for the help and comments. ive put a turbo yb in my capri and although it is quick when the turbo is boosting, i just like the noise of a set of 48s or 50s. my spare needs the bottom end rebuilding and the head is pretty dead so thought it might be easier to get it built into an na or even have a go myself. ill have to have a good think about it. thanks

was it? it will be going in a mark1 escort and i thought if it was na it would save alot of cutting and the expense of the rear end to take the power of the turbo

ive got a turbo yb but i want to convert it to na, how easy is it to do for an amateur? is it just swapping parts over or is there any machining to do? is it worth doing or is it worth just selling the turbo and buying one already done?

thanks mate ill try the pump

no i havent mate, but it used to be fine. it used to sit at halfway but it only needed to get a little bit warm and it would drop. i did try some mineral oil which was a lot thicker and the pressure was better but it seemed to slow the engine down alot

ive changed the oil about 15 times in the capri and still have really low oil pressure. it used to only be when it was warm but now its low when you start it. im using mobil one 15w50 at the minute. many thanks in advance

nice one dale, car looks sweet

excellent mate, nice one

thanks mate ill give it a go, doesnt start on full throttle neither, someone suggested the ballast wire but how do i check if its working???

ive got a starting problem with a mk1 escort. it starts from cold no problem at all but when it is warmed up and turned off it will not start. once it has cooled down it will start again no problem. has anyone got any ideas, or had the same problem? its a 1300 xl

took her out today, looking a little different now. vinyl roof has gone and lowered over some revos just needs a tidy up and a screaming crossflow

you should have used your tripod
