    2.8i into mk3 cortina advice

    Hi all,still a ford newbie.
    Just picked up a 2.8i cologne with gearbox.Also got the rad and engine loom. I managed to get a set of 2.3 Cortina engine mounts.
    Just wondering is there anything else I will need to get the engine installed? Cheers.

    Hello, That is about all you need.

    The only think that needs attention is fuel supply as the 2.8i needs 6.5 bars of constant pressure and a return line. So you will need to modify the fuel tank a bit. Not sure about the size of the fuel line, but the best way is to go with a bit thicker pipe.

    Cheers,
