looking real good.
What master cylinder is that? Escort or Mondeo?

its a 2.5l focus st

Ah, cool.
I'm at the point where i need to sort a servo / cylinder for mine but unsure which to go for!

shiney paint does that mean your going to polish the car more now

NO.... i only wash it maybe once a year

[FRSJON]

its more areo dynamic when its shiney got to worth a couple of tenths so will it be all back together for the central day ? might even give mine a go

Any reason for that particular servo? i'm at the point where i need to sort one. I have 6 pots at the front and focus rear calipers so want one thats up to the job. Any recommendations for my set up?

Much appreciated, Gary

hi mate , i only used that one because i got it free the rod needs extending 30mm and the reservoir needs swapping to a mondeo one.

if i was to buy one it would be from a mk3 mondeo.

[Gadget]

Mk3 mondeo one it is then!
Thanks for the reply! I was thinking that should be a good one as they are heavy cars and my ST TDCi stops brilliantly!!

been doing a lot of work for a motorsport team over the last few months and i got a call last week to say the engine was built up and on the dyno if i wanted to pop over

they maxed out the fuel pupm in the dyno cell but before it did it made 648hp and 610ftlbs @ 5.5k and only .6bar boost this engine rev's to 9k.

[FRSJON]

great work gary hope the fuel pumps changed quickly and back on the dyno !

i thought thats what they would do but they are putting it in the car and doing the rest on the rolling road and on track

oh well...it must be pushing near 1000hp

they built one with a lesser spec than this one for a drag car and it did over 1400hp @2.2bar . this one is for a race car and will be mapped flat out but only run @ 800-850hp as it runs in 1hr long races

Those GTRs are a superb bit of kit.

[Gadget]

Awesome power they make, i reckon those exhaust manifolds are restricting it though .

After a bit of help
Got my MK3 Mondeo master cylinder / servo fitted but the resevoir sits at quite an angle, now i could slice a " V " out of each bracket and re weld it to drop it back down so the resevoir sits straight but then i think the rod would be at too much of an angle.
Any ideas as to how to over come that problem, i did think about stepping the rod down maybe but didnt really like the idea of that,
This pic shows how much i would need to adjust the brackets by



Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

[Excursion]

Have you tried Mk3.5 brackets? The KA ones are another option to look at.

does it matter if its not straight? cant realy see the resevoir in the pic . you could fit a 2.0l picasso resevoir to it, it has a realy small one on the master cylinder the a pipe to a larger one that you use to top it up

[Gadget]

It doesn't " matter " as in it will still function fine but there is no way i would be able to sleep at night if it was on there and not level
I think i'll look into a bit more and see what i can do!!

[crazycage]

thinking of selling the turbo , exhaust manifold ,down pipe ,inlet plenum with throttle body and top boost pipe

got my eye on a gtx3076

thank you just finished sorting the block for the m12 head bolts . will be taking it and all my parts to the machine shop this week .
also having a ttv flywheel and the bottom end will all be balanced.
a cnc ported head and custom cams will be making there way onto the block

[Gadget]

I'd like the whole lot, but i think i'd only be able to fit the inlet in lol.

[crazycage]

to fit that inlet the engine needs to sitting how it sits in the focus/mondeo ie tilted forward a little

Been reading this for ages........Clever, clever man, awesome stuff. Gonna be fantastiche when finished!!!!

[crazycage]

engines at the machine shop

[project rs]

whats this about you selling your bits, i'll do you a straight swap for a red escort turbo with all it's extras or maybe a few quid my way too for the storage charge incured and whats this about the flywheel have you decided to go with it

putting it all back with what i have for now or it will never see the road

i wanted the ttv flywheel but the engine builder talked me out of it due to the rev's my engine will be pulling.

short motor is all built and balanced just need to collecet it

[crazycage]

had all sorts of problems with my short motor long story short, the machine shop couldnt re size two of my wrc rods so i bought a new set of blacktop rods they built it back up only to find the pistons 3mm out the top of the block. turns out my wrc rods are not the same length as blacktop rods managed to now get my hands on two new wrc rods so the engine build is back on.

bought a spare set of pro race 1.2's to put some slicks on too.

and aso bought a new turbo some what bigger than my old one lol so i now need to build a new manifold for it when i get the engine back.

[FRSJON]

good times gary glad you sorted the rod issue now pics of this turbo !

[Gadget]

Sounds good Gary.
Bummer about the rods but at least you got it sorted in the end!

Like i said, i would have loved the turbo and manifold but really wanted my boost pipes running under the engine so thats out of the window.
If i can get back the £250 i paid for my Area 6 exhaust manifold, you'll be making me one and a damper

Driveshafts will be heading to you as soon as i get my fiesta ones off the car!

[crazycage]

good times gary glad you sorted the rod issue now pics of this turbo !

see if you can work out what it is from these
