getting a bit pissed aff now been sitting for ages waiting on my mate fitting the boa ecu and engine bay wiring loom onto my p100 wiring loom
no way man
i did a 2.9 4x4 P100, swopped all the dash and interior into as well, fitted the whole loom from the Sierra into it swopped the doors over and seats etc etc, it was lovely inside.
didn't quite finish it but i'll do another one one day with a 24 in it.

well woo hoo !!! got a friends garage so the P100 will be garaged tommorrow and hopefully the wiring will be done soon
got atlas axle , sierra struts , escort cossie wheels , paint all ready and waiting
need a little help guys
can someone tell me wat starter motor i need to use ??
im using the boa with the 2.8i bellhousing, flywheel but tried using the 2.8i starter but too fat it is fouling the alloy sump...
is it the granada v8 cosworth starter ??
or any ideas??
ecky u amaze me how thick u can be since granada cossies arent v8s
me tae
must have been a slip of the finger hahaha
never even noticed i typed v8
i had an MT75 on my 24v Cortina so i used the starter off that, i'd say if the 2.8 one is hitting the sump you could fit the 2.8's steel sump, you only have to add a couple of pipes to it for the oil drains from the heads, unless anyone else knows a starter that will fit?
or u can just use the boa 24v cosworth starter , fits like a glove woo hoo
thanks for the thanks is it going then brither
hi mate did you want to sell the p100 rear axle when you take it off, cheers lea.
yeah he sold it and got top dollar lucky sod
i did indeed , still on the pick-up but its been promised to someone else , and if i dont keep to my word then
dinae think theyd need a bat fir u ecky
ya sasage
sasage sucker
forgot that bit kris
time to get my finger oot my arse and get this project started again
about time boyo will need to pop down for a nosey
hi guys anyone have any idea what a HEGO sensor is??
Think it heated exhaust gas oxygen. Its the o2 sensor
right guys got my p100 back from the auto-electrician today, so hopefully get a shift on and get the fueling system out and the brakes
yes that was fords name for the lambda probe/oxygen sensor
hey guys can you tell me which radiator i need to use on my p100 with the boa in it??? the sierra radiator or the granada radiator?
bithe brither
Rads are all about the same size. The sierra Dhoc one is ok or the V6. Best one to look for is the ones with the switch for the rad fans, saves having to add another. Also look for the ones with twin fans. Cossie ones can be adapted.
hey guys put a battery on it and got all ignition lights and when i turned the key the engine also turned over WOO HOO !!!!
took a spark plug out and getting a good spark so will get some fuel up the pipes tommorrow and hopefully fingers crossed it will START
giz a bell if your needing a brither hand
ecky,im sure the sierra radiators pipes are on the opposite sides,use the granada one
i know sierra cossies are on the opposite side for defo
what were u doing when i seen you in yer shed m8?
probly setting it on fire
haha used the granada radiator on it as its a slight bigger radiator, all fitted and plumbed up.....
P100 is away getting new fuel pipes, new brake pipes, and the exhaust made for it.......
so hopefully get it back on tuesday , so the boy says and then its for the fitting of the bumpers and front end etc then it off to the mot station before paint...
anyway ian it wasna my fault... hot the fcuk was i ment to know that jump leads, fuel pump and petrol spelt DISASTER ..................oopsss
lol lucky it was just a little fire and not my whole pick-up or garage lol
Hey guys , wot sort of air filter are you using on the boa conversion??
iv got a foam filter on it but it sounds like there is a hard grinding noise from the engine but my mate had a listen and says its coming from the pipe beside the air flow meter??
any ideas?????
Had a cheap eBay cone filter on mine. Yes they do suck a lot if the resinance chamber is not fitted.
