Hi Ian! Madhouse you say? Just how I like it!! It should be a riot! Narrowed Mk5 Cortina Atlas, 3:44 cwp, rebuilt Capri 280 ZF lsd, Escort gp2 bearing housings, Quaife en30b 2 piece halfshafts with blank drive flanges drilled to 4" pcd Mk3 escort discs, Cossie calipers & custom Gaz coilovers on the rear, Cossie T5 gearbox with a TVR bellhousing, Land Rover Clutch & more TVR bits! Should be 300 ponies at the crank... plenty of fun!! Cheers. Leigh. PS: Glad to be here!!
