Couple of the old zetec

Maybe just the wrong clutch?? Only if the plate was the wrong way round normaly it wouldnt even fit? All the clutchs ive ever had if you try and turn the plate around it doesnt even fit inside the cover!

I suppose your trying to say a mk1 escort then?! hu hu!! Lol i do like hairing past your garage

Turnover, I never know when these things are on! Maybe if the cars up to scratch in time for the next one il try my best!

XRt-si, It handles the power surprisingly well, dont get me wrong though its not a car you can go screaming into a bend with and sticking your foot down... you will be in the hendge row!! Also the big 888's on the back help, the car is undrivable without them!! with the yoko's small tyres on the back same as on the front in 5th on the motorway it just about has grip!! Its a waist of time! The triple 8's also being 205/60's are a huge side wall and give good ratios which also helps out with traction! Mark shead who maps the car said how well the car takes the power, he was supprised it handled it so well! Everyone that goes in the car says how nice a ride it is and how well it sits, I think its due to it still being on leaf springs thats its not quite as harsh... Its not for the faint hearted.. if you think 140hp is hooligan, I wouldnt put 400hp+ through one When I know im going out in it for the day i do from time to time feel a bit nervous, but its that that makes sure I cant get bored with it If you chaps ever want a ride to see what its like il be happy to give you a taster at a meet or something..

385hp at the wheels, not sure what that relates to in KW... cheers

Ive got an atlas under my mk1 cortina, fostek did mine. Not cheap but the quality of the welds and brackets are superb! They made mine 1 inch shorter than the standard axle to house 7-8j wheels

Do they not do the front wings? Only i can't see them on there sight?!

There's a couple of chaps over 500 and one of them I believe is thinking about long studs but I don't actually think he has a reason too.. He hasn't had a reason too I mean!

Whats yours silver or black top?

Well ian howell has said I wont see serious power gains with different cams but will move the power around.. ideally mine could do with more power up top so maybe cams are next?! silvertop Mk1 cortina?

Well it was in retro a good few months back.. but didnt have power figures and that to boot then! Would be good maybe to get it in classic! Id like to make a few changes before then anyways, change the look of her a bit
