cardo Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Posted May 13, 2009 I thought it was a bit on the large side,any idea how to shrink it to the correct size?
Fiesta Steve Posted May 13, 2009 Report Posted May 13, 2009 Welcome to OSF, Fiesta sounds like fun, more details please
Trevmk3 Posted May 13, 2009 Report Posted May 13, 2009 I thought it was a bit on the large side,any idea how to shrink it to the correct size? if you have a photobucket account, you can change the size of it on there
cardo Posted May 13, 2009 Author Report Posted May 13, 2009 Thanks for the welcome, The car runs a dry sump 1660 built by Agra race engines in Dundee,balanced nitrided crank,lightened and stress relieved rods,accralite pistons,kc254 with duplex vernier,full race head with titanium caps,webber 45's. Pulls hard to the 7500 rpm limit,sounds great like only a xflow does and can still give zetec engined cars a run for their money The gearbox has 1100 ratios with a quaiffe ATB and AP racing clutch. Front end consists of Bilstein struts,a group 2 tarmac rosejointed front beam,xr2 brakes with ds2500 pads,bias pedal box and a high ratio rack Rear end has bilstein shocks and uprated anti rollbar,stock drums with ferodo linings. The rest of the chassis has been extensively lightened including polycarb windows,1 gallon gas tank ,door inners removed ,etc Wheels and tires are 7x13 RFX's fitted with Avon ACB10's in super soft A24 compound. All in all she's a bit scruffy round the edges but a good honest wee race car that's an absolute hoot to drive
