Sorry only just noticed your topic and just got to say, That is one neat Escort!

The engine will complement the car nicely. When do you plan to have it up and running?

Goodluck with it

Rhys

Matt

Thanks for the comments all!

Hopefully have it running in a couple of months depending on how much i want to do to the rest of the car to get it up to scratch. ie decent front end, fuel system etc.

Probably need a new gearbox, can anyone suggest any gearboxes(other than t5)? have heard of the supra (w55 i think) and celica 5speed w50 but not sure whether they will be strong enough.

Matt the brakes were 1200 i think from hoppers stoppers for the kit, everything you need to complete it, does require upgraded master cyliner though.

Not real sure what i am doing with the motor/gearbox, if anyone is interested send me an email with any questions/offers whatever...open to anything at this point

Thanks
Luke
