  1. Really clean car, just spent a load having head reworked by Courtenays. Lots of new bits: shocks, rad, fan, hubs, interior,seats. painted in satin white, looks proper old 8x13 minilights with 175/50/13s, full cage, f20 5 speed box. Selling to fund a mk2 purchase. £6.5k firm 07796172031 for more details Cheers, Dave
  2. Just removed as I've dropped down to a 3.75:1. £90 collection near Norwich, Norfolk 07796172031 Cheers, Dave
  3. Selling my old legs off the mk1 as I've just replaced the whole setup. I've been told by a reliable builder that these are genuine group1 bilsteins (not the cheap weld on coilover converted ones). They come as a pair of bare legs, no locking rings, no inserts etc etc, will need a bit of a cleanup. Note the steering arms have been drilled out to take rose joints by the look of it. £150 the pair, collection near Norwich, Norfolk. 07796172031 Cheers, Dave

  5. have a 1970 mini redtop im selling (£6.5k) to fund a mk 2 door pref 2litre to park next to my cossie mk1
  6. After a few years away from a osf i'm finally back. Sold my 68 camaro drag car at the weekend and picked up a nice mk1 escort cosworth. Feels good, been too long!
  7. Ideally after a mk1 but may go for a mk2 again. High spec pinto or maybe cossie, must be a two door, not worried about paint etc but gotta be a solid car and mechanically sound. Budget is whatever it takes to find the right car under 10k Mail me v8truck@icloud.com Cheers, Dave

  13. my 360 died so opened it up and done the clamp mod and flashed the HDD at the same time . the towel trick is good and a quick fix but they do still keep failing time to time. still pick one up with the red ring of death for under £50 these days

  15. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0429493/ liam neeson...kill me now!
  16. i heard 'rampage' jackson from UFC was playin BA?
  17. http://www.letstorquebhp.com/calculator.asp anyone tried this vs actual results? quite a few forums are finding the predicted outputs fairly close to measured runs up the strip. not sure what the hidden calcs behind it are but there must be a pre determined modifier for high BHP and RWD. still kept me occupied for a few minutes
  18. i found 'my old print out from track n road yesterday, was 183bhp & 153lb torque @ 7250rpm. after some research it looks like i'd be better going back to some velocity stacks rather than the airbox i fabricated, also i need to find the exact cam profiles from sbd.
  19. they were a great band, highlight (exept slayer) of ozzfest 98
  20. i have cams & pocketed pistons and making just under 190bhp @ 6750rpm, set up at track n road, slightly ported head,twin 45 dellortos, & mbe ECU. my cars on the sbd site under 'customers cars' if thats a comparison for you car would rev higher and make more power i'm sure but still on standard rod bolts.
  21. nice one, that is good then!
  22. that's pretty similar to my xe what carbs? etc are you running? i'm still trying to hit the 200 mark without major changes and expense
