Can't believe your still using the factory gantry brake arrangement.
Upgrade it to a KA/KB laser master on the firewall, add some space there .
V6 looks at home tho of I do say at least you can be proud to say Buick not GM for the motor this time !



Yes yes. It did cause me some grief.
 
I have a pedal box to go in however I didnt have the correct fittings nor reservoirs handy and they werent going to arrive by post in time, so i had to modify what I had.  It is definetly only temporary.
 
Yes buick based. Apparently they resond quite well to boost..... :)

Hey ptmk2, I have one of those alloy intakes for the zetec and millions of other parts, kinda went on a USA spending spree about 20yrs back when our dollar became equal 3rd world against the yank $ , our dollar got $1.15 of theirs , I was scouting every night for as new 2nd hand stuff . Rarety stuff like Ford racing CNC ported heads, a Jackson racing supercharger with intake for focus zetec, it actually came off a focus mk1 wagon from the dealer. It also fits Escorts, heaps of mild to wild cams etc etc.

Edit, Buick V6 in the Grand National was supercharged and as you say, respond excellent with boost.
