redmex Posted September 24, 2012 Author Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Nice, informative photos about the differences in parts between the various outputs. Cheers.. It might save someone a bit of working out .. Progress report..Well some of my new bits have arrived.. ST170 front discs- Mk1 Mondy front flexi's- Mk3 Mondy front Pads... total cost to the door ................... 63 quid.. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/29962.jpg Mk3 Mondy Calipers are at the post office waiting for me.. I got a good deal too, 24 quid inc p&p for the pair I miss my classic fords, but parts @ these prices do remind me why I like this car sooooo much lol.. I can feel a tinkering day coming It can give me a rest from project garage build! Edited September 24, 2012 by redmex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redmex Posted September 25, 2012 Author Share Posted September 25, 2012 (edited) Visual differences again.. Right is a standard 2 litre TB, Left is one is modified for the alloy inlet manifold.. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/29964.jpg To swap the alloy escort linkage system you have to drill out the white lever to take the bigger spindle (9.5mm stepped into 11.5mm i think it was) http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/29965.jpg Then reshape the cable bracket to fit a different mounting point near the throttle hard stop (center of pic below). As you can see i welded a washer to it to make it reach the bolt .. To get full throttle you will need to notch the throttle body base as seen at the bottom of the lower pic. The rest is just odd tweaking checking all works correct and smoothly. http://www.evo-host.co.uk/getimg/29966.jpg Its surprising what time is used modding these smaller bits for the 2 litre conversion My cheap calipers have arrived Roll on dry weather and ill fit them! 300mm here we come Sparkie Edited September 25, 2012 by redmex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
