Re: Wanted! 2.8 speical axle with diff etc

They are like gold dust. It may be both cheaper and better do get a new LSD fitted to another diff. At least it will be new and the diff can be serived as it is fitted. http://www.burtonpower.com/parts-by-category/transmission-clutch-wheels/differential-lsds-atbs/tran-x-lsd-unit-all-steel-english-16...

Re: Right type of fuel to use.

Yes, bog standard unleaded fuel. My father runs it on all his old cars and bikes too. None of us have ever had an issue because we never thrash our cars.

You could, you would also need to fit a pressure regulator too.

Re: Right type of fuel to use.

I used unleaded in all of mine, never had a single issue. If you don't thrash it or tow a lot wear and tear is slow so just put £1 in a pot every time you fill up and by the time the engine has an issue you will have £££££££ to fix it, and probably some extras while the heads are off.

Re: Ebay X-Pack

The press cars where converted Ghias, hence the headlight washers.

All Mk 3 X Packs came from Ford as standard cars, you then paid a dealer to fit whatever bits from the pack you wanted.

Re: Fiesta Info

I used to own a Fiesta 1.4S alike this and you never saw many around even when they were new. The chasis is near enough the same as an XR2 but with smaller front brakes. I really enjoyed mine, it handled extremely well and was petty quick and light. I can remember once following a Supra which pulled...

Re: how much BHP can you get out of a 1.6 ?

The 1.6 is a bit more revy which some people like. Make it GT spec with a 2 ltr cam, twin webber and decent exhaust and get about 90 bhp.
