[AlanN]

[AndyG]

Will check, but isn't very friendly

[AlanN]

Just a few images of SVO for MK3 and MK4. Not sure what was carried over to the MK5

Under bumper fog kit


Towing Leveling kit?


Dash top pod

[AlanN]

Heres a good one! Looks like some sort of heater under the door step

[Luke]

nice where did you get this from Al

[AlanN]

Ive just sold all my parts list for MK2 Cortina's and decided to look for a MK3 transit one, but I could only find MK3 on microfiche, I stumbled on a small parts book for the mk3/4 book on ebay

[AndyG]

There's loads of nonsense on the cat..............

You might find this bolt on bumper cover interesting...............

[AlanN]

Wow! that would have made life a lot easier

[rover]

Wow! that would have made life a lot easier

Ahh who needs an easy life?

All this talk of SVO's maketh me jealous

I even had to change my wiring loom just to fit the autobox

[AlanN]

Wish more of this stuff was off the shelf

My lad has got an ex-ambulance and obviously a lot of SVO options. The list is as follows:-

Option Selection Meaning?
7502 272 Aux switch panel and various switches and instruments?
7514 1 Rear anti-roll bar fitted
7515 1 Poss front anti-roll bar. (one is fitted)
7520 3 Front fog lights are fitted.
7526 11 Additional fuse/breaker box fitted in glove box.
7549 2 Filler neck guard fitted.
7551 1 ?
7558 8 ?
7559 6/A ?
7560 1 ?
7586 1 ?
7589 4/A ?
7631 3 ?
7639 31 ?

Also perhaps someone can check the info on the type plate please.
ENG B4T Assume this is 2.9i V6 as that is what is fitted.
Rear axle type M
Ratio G What ratio is this? Any ideas?

Hope someone can shed a bit of light, cheers.

I havent got the microcat anymore, computer failure, so I cant cross reference them, maybe AndyG can

[webbysdad]

Thanks for that Alan. The ambulance has twin batteries with a big red breaker in the engine bay which can be operated from a dash push button and has a volt meter in the aux pod. I guess the fig 272 for 7502 means the selection of switches in the pod.
I can understand the uprated springs and shocks as it is fitted with front and rear anti-roll bars and corners flat, even though it is a high top! Not sure about the tilting seat base though. Any idea which seat it refers to?
Look forward to hearing if anyone else has any info. Cheers.

[AlanN]

I guess the fig 272 for 7502 means the selection of switches in the pod

Yes, I think so, as some of them have extra numbers with each button or loom or lamp etc. I'd like to find a full list, I'll have to try and get another microcat
