  1. Escorta got it str8 for dropping the front struts, the pri-bar bit ne way, i just did it an hour ago on a mk1 capri... Its so much easier to handle when out and spring compressors are like $25 unless u can borrow them off a garage. I just took out the factory coils and put in Cobra lowering springs, didnt even need the compressor to put the Cobras on!!! much shorter... Ill do the other side 2morro and should see how low i got it Ideally u want 2 ppl doin the job.
  2. My old man has a 3.5 Rover V8 for sale, comes with gearbox - about $800 i think he wanted. PM me if u want more info.
  3. Haha, yeah, 265 hemi with trible webers in a scort would go down real good
  4. Most car guys will have a few stashed under ther bench, there common as hell! id advertise locally for a start, n probably pay no more than $50
  5. If u do a fast road cam and slap sidies and extractors on, it will go heaps better, but i just put a twin throat downdraught on and noticed a huge difference, and with extractors, mine would go even better

    Mr Haines sez - make sure u label all the hoses and stuff, so that you can match them up later on. but yea, get a haines manual, everything u need 2 know.
  7. Yea, this happened in the scort once... it was water in the carb from the very bottom of the fuel tank. i think i took the carb apart and cleaned it, it went much better. Other than that, praps just give it time to get all the water through the sistem/sink to the bottom again.
