mk1super Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Just got the new issue of performace ford as i seen it had a 872bhp rally cross cossie escort in it. The fella that owns it is taking the engine in it and running gear and putting in a new chassis. My question to you all is if you had the running gear and the dosh what osf would you pop the running gear into? Brief spec 1960cc t88 turbo engine sorted by jenspeed nuf sed 6spd ferguson box X-trac active diffs front/rear in magnesium cases triple plate carbon clutch. Wrc suspension. Alcon stoppers. Id get a big wing mk1 escort and slap it all in and on that
Jelly Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 You'd need 100" wide rear wheels to get that sort of power down!
mk1mexico Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 Put it all on ebay and buy a car you could actually drive
mk1super Posted September 30, 2006 Author Report Posted September 30, 2006 Be fun trying to put the power down but if its 4 wheel drive wouldnt be a problem or would it?
orionmojo Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 fit a propellor and go and fly with it
Hilux Posted September 30, 2006 Report Posted September 30, 2006 thats actually a difficult question to answer seriously, i'll have a think
Gareth Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 I'd stick it in an old skool ford lorry :!:
sambo Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 a replica of a zakspeed capri !!! Good call man! I see in the latest retro ford that the body kit is almost available...........
Jimsiss Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 I'd stick it in a mk1 tranny van and make it into a new improved supervan 1 (supervan 1.5 )
Danmex Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 a replica of a zakspeed capri !!! Now your talking
orionmojo Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 a replica of a zakspeed capri !!! Now your talking thats a good idea or someting like a drag spaceframe- although it'd be a shame to jsut use it o track or drag. i love all rounder cars personally
antz Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 I'd stick it in a mk1 tranny van and make it into a new improved supervan 1 (supervan 1.5 ) hell yes!
Gibson Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 fooked mk3 tranny... purely too see the looks on peoples faces when they are shat upon from a great hieght by a rusty shed
mk14dr Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 i'd put it in my car, and try to keep it looking as stock as possible. i love the sleeper look. imagine a 4dr mk1 leaving everything (and i mean everything!) for dead
BIGKEV Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 Mk5 escort van that has been used for delivering bricks to fishmongers..... What was the question again ??
mk2_boy Posted October 1, 2006 Report Posted October 1, 2006 i'd have to put it in a mk2 granada.... cage it up... wide steels... then play with the local chav tossers in their novas/corsas/civics subarus etc.... if i could keep the old girl in a str8 line!
mk1super Posted October 2, 2006 Author Report Posted October 2, 2006 Wicked answers guys pity my mates one was so bad he said id space frame an old mini cooper and put the lot in there Dont worry we all laughed at him
Admin Vista Posted October 2, 2006 Admin Report Posted October 2, 2006 Hmmm not sure what I'd recommend putting it in, but what I do think is that that sort of power is best left to a race track. 850bhp Old Skool Fords running around on a road near me ? Scary thought, no ta
RSvan Posted October 2, 2006 Report Posted October 2, 2006 That much power i would stick it in a nice heavy mk1 granada ghia
