Just looking to bring it back to to stock for the moment and will drop in some mods as my experience with it grows as I don't have lots of experience rebuilding cars on this scale however I did help a friend of mine rebuild his cosworth from the ground up so I picked up some bits and bobs on the way

Took her out for a drive to see how she is and parked her up came back to start her and she would not go had to get the rac out to find out the Crank Position Sensor had died just my luck got a new one from euro car parts put it in and away we go should have seen the ominous sine of the rev counter not working :(
