JC Posted October 21, 2009 Author Share Posted October 21, 2009 Wow good work there mate, I like the colour of that rocker cover! cheers, i've got a black top in the garage and undecided whether to fit it or not, as need to find the right bolts, but you don't see many escorts with the black top in! wouldnt count on the haircut john! PMSL Coming along now mate, cheers hey stranger, hope your doing alright. your car is looking good mate, is that engine new? unfortunately i don't think the engine is worth much, i would just keep it for now as a worst case scenario. Hey up Dave! I'm good thanks! the 2.0ltr is new, didnt like the idea of a higher mileage one, old one i know isn't worth much £100 if lucky! would rather sell it to a good home cheap, as i know its a good engine, ideal replacement for a high mileage lump!! with dave on this one, lucky to see £50 from it lol, ebay would get more ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 Nice and tidy, very good condition for a mk6 cheers, trying to keep it mint, but its is still a daily runner! Coming along nicely there mate! One of my favourites this one! Engine transplant will be worth it! Looking at doing it to mine, Where did that engine came out of? Yeah I hope so, the engine came out of a box! was originally destined for a mondeo discovered that since I had the car lowered it doesn't like ramps! front bumper has to be dropped off! http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04014.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04017.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04016.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04015.jpg and starting to collect some shiny parts as hoping to get engine done in January http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04229.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04230.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04231.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04232.jpg http://i906.photobucket.com/albums/ac263/lordjc1983-2/Silver%20Escort/DSC04233.jpg decided to not use the black rocker cover and using the one off my 1.6... and seeing if my mechanic will notice the engine change ECU will be after market with switch able map, one for economy and one for track use :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JC Posted November 15, 2009 Author Share Posted November 15, 2009 very nice buddy, didnt think vernia pullies made that much difference? cheers, they make a difference when you don't have any pulleys in the engine to start with...... it was more to help a certain person to afford a hair cut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
