He has had a visit from Dave young, the guy who done Ickys loom in the white Duratec mk2. He has done work for many F1 teams and alot of escorts.
He said he could make a loom in 2 weeks approx. So to save a bit of money he is just going to have a basic loom done to work the lights, wipers etc. Then at a later date add to the loom and get the traction control, paddle shift working
He is definately keeping it now
what an awesome car
glad to hear the loom is getting sorted now

Hi mate, he is using all sierra stuff like i am in mine. He has a 50mm core rad and intercooler by Pro Alloy.
But if you dont want to chop the inner wings about to fit sierra stuff you can get the pro alloy kit for the mk2 escort. Its around £900 in the burton book. But if you ring pro alloy direct they maybe able to do you a deal if you collect and pay cash My mate Dave got his for around £630
Thanks Kev thats ideal mate, I thought you lads used the sierra stuff
I really did fancy the pro alloy coolong package, although iv heard theres no room for swirl pot
Id rather try keep all the bits thats on my doner Saph coz she's all set up and I know it works well.
Thanks again Kev, il need to be making some measurements under the bonnet me thinks
Cheers mate
P.s theres pics n info on my build on www.scottisholdskoolescorts.co.uk under resto and rebuilds.

thats nice
very nice
that is smart lookin motor
Wud like sum more pictures
Very cool, one question. Why use a swirl pot ? Are they only needed on YB's ?
The swirl pot gets rid of small air bubbles in the water system and helps with air locks
