Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers "Shorty"

I am installing E-PAS on my MK3 Face lift. I have been working on this since October last year.

I am using the motor from the Vauxhall Corsa C power steering column.

I would like to share my build and share the information with all, so if anyone else would like to copy/ install E-PAS this may help

I'm looking at fitting gas struts to my Mk2 Cortina Bonnet. Has anyone done this?, i'm sure there must be out there. If so any help would be great, like length of the struts and a

pic or two of mounting points. Cheers.. :thumbup:

He did the ECU in my 24v Cosworth Cortina  and is an absolute diamond geezer who is always helpful.

Have a look! I actually learned something new from his video on Air/Fuel ratio:

They look good but shipping might be prohibitively expensive.

I want to replace it what would you reccomend using in terms of the electronic fuel pump and what fuel regualtor if needed anyone has got a good setup or advice.

Thanks in advance.

But im not 100% sure so i was wondering if anybody knows the answer so that i can decide on buying this wheel or not. 

Thanks

Would like to hear any opinions/thoughts on louvres made up of fibre glass

I am on the search for a while now for a mk5 louvre and came across the following,

The Autoplas brand are very scarce to come by these days.

Thanks Denis.

And my maybe crazy idea... A decade ago I was given this vintage Eggers-Vetting mechanical fuel Injection setup to fit a 2.0 pinto by a coworker who raced formula Ford back in the day. I see it's also somewhat common here in North America to take a similar Hillborn mechanical injection setup, and install electric fuel injectors. IF the Pinto manifold matches the CVH pattern, then in theory, could I electrify this mechanical injection manifold, with a TPS sensor of some sort and run it on the Zetec? This would surely be within my shoe-string budget, compared to some other custom options.

So I came here to be talked out of it if it's a bad idea. With the original static seatbelts if I fasten it fully it's very uncomfortable and I can't even come close to reaching the dash handbrake without having to loosen it, and therein comes the safety concern. These things will be near useless in a collision unless I've by chance properly tensioned it pre-collision.

I know some may want to keep it in original condition. This Mk.3 - while in very good condition - isn't such that it's fully original to the last detail and I don't consider it a "classic" to that extent that it needs to be kept 100% original.

So yay or nay? Did you all keep it original, or have some installed modern seatbelts? Best option I thought would be if modern seatbelts could be installed into the current setup so that it could be changed back to the static belts in the future.

And then if it's not considered profanity to do so, where would I have such a retrofit done? Since it's about safety I'm not considering doing it myself.

As a genuine spoiler is hard to find I made my own from 2 cheap eBay jobs!

If anyone has the same engine/rad set up, you may just be able to help.

Many Thanks 

think this is a no go but still impressive technology for £25

I've acquired a set of R/S alloys that I'm hoping to use on my MK5 estate and 67 Corsair. I need some deeper wheel nuts to suit and hoping to get one set that fits both cars.

So the question is, does anyone know the thread size for both cars wheel studs/nuts? I'm thinking 7/16 unf but I have no thread gauges to check with.

Thanks in advance of any help.

Has anyone had an aluminum radiator made ? and who did it ?

thanks  

I am about to get my Mk1 Airflow seats recovered

The old metal  "S" springs are very  soft and saw rubber diaphragms on eBay apparently they fit both Mk1 and 2

Has anybody verified this, or have installed them and were they  an improvement ?

No I am not putting in alternative seats. 

The seats will be going to  an upholsterer friend of mine and I will get the Aldridge covers for him to fit.  

Just looking to know if any know how to find a discussion that was on here regarding alfa seats installed to their cortina.

Unsure what make it was or has anyone done this mod.?

Thanks Denis
