Whay do you want a servo? Don't you trust the good old sierra master cylinder?

Hi, Yes I'm Building the +4 Mc Sorley with 1.8 Zetec and although I havn't got round to actually fitting the Zetec from drawings and Ford Zetec plans there should be plenty of room.

The only tight spot seems to be the oil filter (Change it for a shorter one).

I'm looking at Servo and will probably mount a remote from a Mondeo.

Wil let you know in a week or so how well it fits

I noticed that Mac1 have redesigned there engine bay/tunnel area so the zetec can be pulled back a few inches,it seems to help with oil filter fit and the lower steering shaft.
