Just about finished. I have taken the Cosworth 2.3 engine out and sold it and have just fitted an m44 with itb's which is turning into a lot of work but not far off now. getting the quaife gearbox to fit was a lot of work. I am really happy with how it has turned out and am looking forward to driving it.

looking good tim , why did you decide to out the cossie lump .

Long story, It is a lovely engine, 2.3 all steel but if anything went wrong with it the parts are expensive and hard to get hold of. it is now going into an escort which is a more suitable home for it.
