Repro Decals arrived I fitted a few, still need to put one in the engine bay, just can’t remember where it goes, it’s either the heater bowl or inner guard

Hi JR
 
in case it helps, mine is located as pictured, which I/ve been told is pretty right
 
I believe one was put in Service Book ...........  plus one on Drivers Door Catch Panel  ......   as you have in pics

According to a Ford letter to the original owner of my car these stickers were to be posted after sale and affixed by the owners. Suggested positions were, owners handbook, engine compartment and side glass. Owners obviously had their own opinions as to where would be best and fitted them to air cleaner, up beside the I'd plate, left or right inner guards, maintenance booklet and drivers door latch panel. As ford only suggested THREE positions that indicates that only three were sent, two for the car and one for the booklet.

Third paragraph down.

Cheers JR
 
can anyone tell me if the amount of oil needed after draining the sump on our 165HP Specials is exactly the same as
the Oval Port 144HP V6 ? (with or without filter)
(Still haven't found my Dipstick and Tube that my son reckons he knows nothing about !)
 
many thanks i/a

sump looks identical so capacity should be the same

Can anyone advise if the rear qtr GT Badges were orange painted for the 11 Specials or was red and orange chosen subject to Body Colour ?
I want to buy new ones and red would "fight" with Wild Plum as on my "special", and orange is the better choice, but if red was mandated regardless of body colour, I'd have to buy red.

JR, how's progress going on the 165HP BBS special project? 

car is progressing slowly, its wiring time.  looms i have are all a bit ratty, Ill probably end up making 1 good one out of a couple

Guys, Does anyone know if Auto Sparks UK harnesses are any good? Their description of work carried out looks impressive. The main hassle I see is that you have to send over the 2 pairs of firewall/bulkhead round plugs as they cannot be replicated?
I have pretty much rebuilt my loom, removed the ballast wire, fitted a new ignition switch (Lucas one for a mini) which fits the Capri shroud, etc. Found a couple of wires where the insulation was a bit dubious so the new looks appealing (and expensive).
