Following the front end rebuild replacing incorrect Cortina parts with Sierra parts wheels don't look like they belong on a clowns car any more!

So, finally got Franky moving under its own power today.

Here's another video of me putting it back in - not so much smoke now its burnt the oil off

Got to get used to the clutch yet though, as I stalled it.

But if feels like raw power, think its going to be scareylink

Mine burns plugs just like race car if you have a problem use cosworth or rs turbo plugs have the number but not to hand

Well done.

I started my engine last night for the first time since I drove it into the garage in New Zealand. It's given me a big motivation boost and I want to get on with it now. There's something about them making noise that makes you feel like you're progressing.

Mine needs some tuning, but the Duratec does sound powerful
