Hi Tay14 I have a early mk2 Cortina and I sent my legs of to gaz shocks as you can no longer
get the inserts for the early series1 cars
I told gaz I was running 2inch lower springs. they said they will put a shorter stroke in the shock
so my springs will not fall out when jacking car up, cost is
£85 per leg

this is the correct pressure plate & you must use spacer with it from burton
-
that pic is the type of pressure plate with the rounded thrush bearing that you need that pic from burton is for the 1.1 1.3 so yes you are right

Are you sure?? I can see several Motorcraft EI only kits including the mk2 Cortina.
well i have had a eye test done and they say i need reading classes B)

wanted mk1 or series 1 mk2 propshaft...
you will need to measure you diff flange to see what one you're got as there are 3 different sizes
The 86mm & 92mm are on the early cars Anglias Cortinas and MkI Escorts, the 109mm is on the MkII and is the same size as Atlas.

i had a look on Accuspark web site it looks like they do not do electronic ignition for Motorcraft distributor,
but will do a lucas distributor with electronic ign fitted for the prexflow for £64.95

I dont think those bolts are the right thread for a mk2 cortina but could be wrong.
threads are correct for mk2 cortina 7/16 with 12mm shank

Hi ed
The express steel panel wheel well follows the contour of the bottom of rear 1/4 panel
Is your wheel well a home made 1
You could make your own fillet

Inside the back of tacko you have a calibration dial which you can
Adjust via the instrument light holder. Which you have to remove
With a small screw driver adjust dial .you can use a Strobe light with a tacko reader would help
To confirm correct revs

bolts are 3/8 unf but I can't remember how long they are
just measure the old ones for length

yes, when throbnozzle racing built my engine & skimmed my head he shortened my push rods
977, 1200, 1300, pre-xflow engines, I would have thought used the same pushrods
