I dont believe ford actually made a transit cosworth, they're all conversions.

I'd love to shove a cossie in my motor . next millernium perhaps. but for the time being what will make my tipper go a bit faster and sweeter . You two guys are both driving the same age van as myself . I would like to have it tuned - quite what i mean by this is largely unkown . Any ideas or past posts that might help me.

thanks James

wouldnt a Chevy 320 small block be a nicer option... I built up a custom American jobby a few years back with the American style Bedford van with jag rear axle and lots of other go faster goddies, went like a ballistic missile, not a easy one to try and out manouver when its all modded too, had lots of fun with Porches and the likes and it howled, other cars just werent worth the effort of taking on due to its healthy appetite...... now I simply do it with a motor bike

@brocky1978: Were these surely factory spec (SVO) Cossies you've seen and driven in Ireland

I've never heard of it before, or were these 2.9i 12v Transits?
