    I think it was only X-packs that came from the factory with Grp1 engines, the Grp1 rally cars were built outwith the Ford factory.

    Xpack kit, rocket gearbox, bilsteins, grp1 airbox, cam and BVH, LSD, twin downdraft Webers, and 7.5 x 13 4 spokes.

    A friend of mine made good money out of his hobby (he restores cars also). I have always been wondering how does he know everything about cars so well, probably he checks with great forums like this one
    Unfortunately we don’t keep in touch but I do know that he's earned some money, bought property in Greece and lives there doing his hobby. My perfect retirement looks like that…
