also got the block back today from iIan Howel at fiesta frenzy, he's sorted out the modding the xe pistons to fit the ford rods, got some arp bolts to.

been to the bodyshop today for an update, car still looks ill but is slowly getting there.

mfi aint that bad on starting, as for going efi. we managed to get an erst turbo cheap for the doner parts. ive previously done a ka with efi when i used to work for power crazy.

i m currently fitting a 2.1 zvh turbo motor to my ford ka! i would go efi straight away while the car is in bits its a much much better setup and it'l start in the mornings lol and when its warm!

will be nice to see a feature on this one when finished

some impressive cars about on and off the ford sites, work with the daily so appreciate the effort that goes into them!

not gonna be running one of them adapter plates, if and when it does go efi it will be done properly. i know of and can prove of an mfi set up of reachinh 273bhp on the rollers. this belonged to a good friend of mine called keith taylor, and is known on most ford sites.

managed to get some pics from the body shop

this was the car when it came in to me


this was the engine stripped out


rear end view


i will get some more pics up tomorrow all being well of it in the bodyshop

great. the car was mint when it came to with only a few minor marks on it. it was already running with a 2.0 zvh engine and twin 40s, and yes it was a handfull to drive. but having to set the carbs up on it all the time was a pain in the *ss. so he's decided he wants a 2.1 turbo in it. i have already stripped the car to a shell and its now in the bodyshop having inner and outer wings, front pannel, new bonnet and tailgate, and a full respay inside and out, while this is being done ive had the honours of stripping the engine to be modded and also stripping the doner car.

yup do so,

this is a friends and customers car im pretty much restoring. am i ok to carry this on , on corsasport. this is an interesting build:thumbs:
