Good old ford scene tax!

I love sierras and a great conversion seeing as YB’s are stupid money nowadays

This bit took three days of pissing about to get it to fit right

Must have had the engine in and out at least ten times making adjustments here and there.

I turned that feature on, it sent out 250 emails and then the email account got locked for sending too many Currently on hold with support to get it ressurected and to find out the limit that I broke

That does all look very nice. How is it running?

It's trying my patience, the Jag diff keeps spewing oil out of the breather on the diff cover I made and I've been trying to fix it since January

Had it trailered to Emerald for mapping and only got to 1/3rd throttle mapping and it made a right mess ending the day!

After struggling with making headers for the last engine I cheated and had the whole system made by a lad local to me who is much better at this sort of thing, all I did was make the flanges to match my cylinder heads at work.
