i hope it will be better this time, last time was a real rush job, not quite sure how to do the steering and the coils on the front properlly, its in there but i am not happy!!

[transit4x4phil]

yep they are mk 1 escort arches and they fit it a treat

yes free autojumble

have you fitted the mk5 front end???? if so with the front brakes you can fit disks and calipers from a mk5 6 stud with 15" wheels they will make it stop loads better

my mates got abs rear and front off a 190, was thinking about using it, i have front and rear mk 3 axles and a mk 2 front spoiler and mk 2 rear windows, mk 2 front spoiler, and i have just bought a 54 transit cheap, i dont know wether to break it, i might do

whats the cc on the v8 engine

[transit4x4phil]

its a 5.8, it came out of a mustang, and its handy having a boss who used to be a professional drag racer!

[Luke]

you need to bring this to the north weald drag racing meet - if it's done in time

although my chances of being the fastest transit on the forum are getting less by the day

[transit4x4phil]

why are there others on a mission aswell??,. dont think it wil be done in time for that, i am very limited on my time now, with getting married in less than 4 weeks, missus has me on a tight leash at the mo!!

[Luke]

cant you get a quick divorce
tbh i'll be lucky if i get mine done too - but we have north weald every year so aim for 2012 mine will definalty be done for that

[transit4x4phil]

lol!! i think mania will be the first time it gets out to be honest, gonna cost £4000 to rebuiled the engine!!

[Luke]

hows this going phil not by any chance ready for north weald 2012 on june 16th is it
