Good job. Bit more fine tuning to come Phil?

Cheers Guys :p

There is probably a bit more in the old girl...seeing as this time was set with a blown headgasket and a heavy breathing(blowby)tired old Cossie engine!!

On the return road after each run,the engine was missfiring due to ingested coolant which cleared once the cooling system pressure was relieved in the pits!! I then topped up the coolant and left the cap off until we were staged up ready to run to avoid any residual heat/pressure build up forcing any coolant back into the cylinder!

With 15% cylinder leakdown and the breather system stretched to its limits the impending engine rebuild isnt far away...I just need to pull my finger out!

Ford/Cosworth really did build a tough engine...mine is as it was installed into its donor Sapphire in 1988,unchanged,internally stock;)

Stay tuned for the rebuild progress...this will be under way once the Porsche Brembo conversion is finished and the Simmons are resized!
