Fabrication of the bulhead needed as the engine bays in 100es are tiny

[bmxdave]

I never fitted mine.

 

I think your best bet is to fit the whole lot. Crossmember, rack, front struts, column etc. I think its pretty straight forward.

 

And yes, there will be a lot of bulkhead cutting awayness. And i think youll need to cut your gearbox tunnel too.

 

Im not sure about axles but mine has a mk1 cortina axle and it seems to be on the same pickup points. Its using the standard springs and shockies. Youll need a custom prop too.

 

My bonnet has also been cut a bit on the inside to give space for the rad cap which id expect to be neccesary with any bigger rad.

 

If your really after doing it go to www.oldfordautos.co.uk and have a look on there. It has everything you need i think to do it, and if you call up and have a good gab theyll sort you out on everything you need to know and do.

 

Heres a few pictures of my engine bay if it helps.
