Tall paul Posted July 24, 2011 Report Posted July 24, 2011 Has anyone got any pics of under the bonnet of a mk2 escort fitted with 40's on a 1.6 xflow with the brake servo still fitted? Cheers
lurch914 Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 heres mine its a mk1 but its pretty much the same, this is what i done been told mk2 should be the same, undo the servo mount push it down so the top hole is at the bottom one then redrill the new bottom hole and it will clear
Mad Mex Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 as above mate...done this on my Mk2 however it helps greatly if you have a angled inlet manifold (not sure you can lower the servo tower enough with a straight/low angled inlet)and also when u push the servo tower down check the hole by your pedal box where the brake rod pass's through, you may need to elongate this hole as it will limit the amount you can lower the servo by and you may not be able to push the brake pedal down:thumbsup: cant post pics up as at work but same as above really...
mk1super Posted July 27, 2011 Report Posted July 27, 2011 I think the 1300 x flow twin carb manifold clears a servo, due to angle and its shortness. i maybe wrong
Tall paul Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Posted July 27, 2011 Thanks for the pic, great help We have the same manifold as your one which is angled. We have been told that the 1.3 xflow one will fit without modding the servo tower but there £130 so modding the tower it is, thanks for the help
