It's all about the 2nd and 3rd gear ratios that is the only difference that I know of

They can be adjusted if they are like an escort one ?

Plam side sell quick racks for not to much

If they have a hand brake and a seat some will take it . I'm about to ship one to invercargill

You have a bent strut,  the difference you have shown between the tyre and strut body ( about 15mm ) shows this. 

 

PM me as i have spares which you might need.... 

 

Thanks

Do your research then read some more for the end result you want. How many thou over is your bore?

The custom cam in my 1600 has 11.5 mm lift on the inlet vaules and they just touched the 1300 pistions I had to get a very small amount taken out if the pockets you should be fine with a 234

New followers are a must

Wheels look great pics on car 

Its getting closer now keep the photos coming. You have far to much spare time in that new job of yours

What size tyres on the gold wheels.

185/60/13 on a 7 inch rim 

I would be keen . But cant get anymore cars in my driveway as the shed and ground floor are both fill

So today was a sad day the green goblin is sold and currently heading south to Nelson so keep an eye out for it will post some final photos soon thanks for all the views and support feedback and like over the 3 years that I have owned it ,

I have a new project some thing a little special and rare this time will start a post at some stage 

Hey welcome to oldschool was this out at webber spec not long ago I'm sure I seen it there ??? Looks like his work 

I used Kennelly cams Peter is very good will custom make for you . I agree with Auckland cams had one ground wouldn't perform any where near the spec he had given 

Just put a nice smaller cam in it like a BCF2 it will go fine and be a nice driver they where never built to be super fast as much as we try 

Big congrtas to Doug first time in 5 year rebuild and his estate made it to a meet now he just has to have it ready for gumboot . When are the flash wheels going on??

So start up was planed for tomorrow fingers crossed . Got a few hours here and there and was all ready for tonight when I thought I will just quickly check inside the carb and found this

So a clean out and then the big test will it go???? Tried a couple of times by myself . Then called a pro into help and few more tries and away she went 

Magic one big job ticked off now the rest can move forward quite quickly 

Ferodo DS2500's, had these in the sport great on the track and really good on the road . I would buy again are a little pricey but well worth the money

2inch at the back  and sides I will need to check go to the local engine builder he will have what you want 

Fair call. I was offered a car in worse than this condition a year ago the guy wanted 2k for told me it runs well  

Will look great with loads of hard work you can get a whole car now in parts due to the following these cars have . Keen to watch how you go . Honda power would be very fast but do a xflow these car in standard dress are all class

howcome you changed the front suspension around?

This project has come to an end for me 2 broken engines in a space of 3 months and still loads to spend to keep me happy . I would rather invest into my other project as it has now sat around for just on 2 years while the sport keep taking all my spare cash . So I'm turning it pretty much back to standard running gear . There will still be loads of good parts though out it for a new owner . And the funds will get my other car moving along quickly. And might get me a cheap toy in the middle

I wouldn't worry to much about the bigger engine . Looking good 

So a couple of weeks down and a business to run has no helped getting the car ready . Big thanks to Max in the weekend and the engine and front end is all back in. I have been working away over the week and have done a fair bit more start up is planned for Friday and Trad me on Sunday .So the front end, I was using was in need of a little care 

Nothing to hard just in need of a little  attention and every thing came together pretty well and I got it back on the wheels

Still loads to get done over the week  lsd to come out  4.1 open should suit the 5 speed and remove the adjustable shocks. Brand new set ready to go in . Loads to do and still I will need a car for gumboot rally only 5 weeks to go 

Escort tax is getting very high now days but there are still a few around that go for a fair price
