mk2 gt

i have a electric fan on my escort and i just have a switch for it on the inside of the car works magic

i have a twin cam head sitting in storage and it is wide port as its just the head and i can see the ports. i do not know what i have on my blue top but i believe its small port. doesnt the 4agze have some forged internals? there is something about the block thats stronger

PICS ADDED!!!

THE SIDE OF ONE BLOCK

YOU CAN SEE A LITTLE OIL FEED THING ON THE SIDE??? IMNOT SURE WHAT IT IS THIS IS ON THE OTHER BLOCK

if you look at the first photo that silver thing looks like a actuator kinda

i took anothe photo side by side so you can compare the blocks also i got this little round thing what is it? :S ita a bearing for something but what?

just red the nz classic driver mag, there is a escort built and raced by Don Halliday fully restored to how it was when it raced in '74 its powered by a bda but the price is a whoping 65k

retep130 what area have you seen the rs1600?

all right guys i would post this on toyspeed, but i cant join as they dont allow hotmail accounts, so i will ask here i have just picked 2 blocks up they are 4age blocks, i have a feeling they are different and maybe not bluetop.

The numbers on one of the block are - o11 and y29 with a k after it and the other is y20 o22 does any body know what one is what?

i think one might be a red top block and the other a 4agze block, as i got a 4agze intake manifold and one(or half) of a red top rocker cover(there is 2 rocker covers on red top 4ages) i also got a head with them and it is a wide intake head is there any way i can tell?

all help much appreciated

oh yea sorry lol i meant escort estates

any estates there?

im in love i wanted a tina wagon! its mint bro!

cheers thanks alot methodz

cheers thanks alot methodz

nismo.capri - yes it is ideal for me specialy if it can handle 500hp and bolt into my mk 2.

does anybody know if the rear end in the estates is different form the sedans?

well im very keen on one of those clutchs mr revhead, i will let you know in a day or two.

im very keen on your mustang diff methodz i just waiting for those measurement to see if my driveshaft will line up to the diff

i dont have a grinder and i dont want to unbalance it

mr revhead what brand clutch is that

oh yea sorry lol i run a blue top in a escort ESTATE not van

mr revhead thats cheap!!! how long can u get the mat that price for me?

cheers thanks

methodz, thats ok i was wonerding about the centre of the diff to the drive shaft as to weather it may be off centre abit?

i want some thing with better bite and asomething that wont slip easy but still driveable in a daily driver

ok i am just wondering if the drive shaft will meet up with the diff ok thou..

does anyone have connections to get me a cheap good clutch kit for a 4age? eg. exedy

its not a lsd is it?

yea i could be keen on it and rotarua sounds good

will it bolt in? or will there need to be modifications done to my chassis? how much would it cost to send to auckland?

Methodz100 - nah, only one was spinning.

nismo.capri - will the atlas rear end from the 3L mk1 capri bolt in? also i dont have much coin at the mo other wise i would go for the lsd. would putting something more common in mean lots of fabrication?

the previous owner said that the diff i recently blew was tightened thats why you could hear it whineing, that wouldnt contribute to blowing the diff would it?

i have already blown mine i blew it on the 26th doing a line lock. so thats why i want to upgrade the diff

my tires are 185/60r14 with bridgestone conselfa's

i would say i have around 120hp i am not too sure, i spoke to a guy who i got my replacement diff and he said the 1300cc motors blew them with ease.

maybe it doesnt have the 3.54 diff in it i am not sure

i want to upgrade my diff, and i was wondering what other diff head would fit in the standard housing for my estate, i think it has the 3.5 in it now and its not strong enough, what other paths could i go down to get a stronger diffi n there without costing an arm and a leg?

all help much appreciated
