thanks the engine is as follows

bd16 cams with the veriner pullys
Fully proted and matched inlet mainfold
port, polish and bigger valve head
cosworth low comp forged pistons
i beam con rods
fully balced bottom end
lightened flywheel
group a head gasket
arp head, con rod and flywhell bolts
brand new 200 wrc spec block
hi rate oil and water pump

its going to be run on stand alone management with the god send that is anti lag.

im not going to race the van. the cage was £33 off ebay (steel) so i just had to have it. i have just got back from america a got hold of all 5 ford racing gauges for it.

i want to have a sort of rally design to it. i am having in re spared inside and out in a bule (don't know what one yet) and i want to see if i can get some compromative mos for it.

You my friend are absolutely bloody bonkers!!! I like it! Can't help but think you should'a gone for a Ford V8 though, those cossie engines ain't cheap especially when they go wrong. :wink: They are fun though and that anti-lag is gonna kick ass................ i feel sorry for the turbo that's going on that thing............ :lol:
