Chris, what engine have you got in there? I don't recognise the shape of the bonnet, is it a custom one?

Andy.

Not sure what bonnet it is was on the car when i brought it.It's got a 280bhp Cosworth green top engine in it goes very well now but was a bit of a dog when i got it just got to get a new rad as it runs hot on the track,then i think will have to do brakes god it never stops when you get into track days bloody good fun though.

I'm planning to wash it (and the Scooby) tomorrow, so I'll take some more pics then.

It's a great engine and I've had 2 of these. Just watch the water carefully because if you see white gunk in there then the cylinder head oil galleries have gone pourous. It was a common problem on later units circa 1990-93ish.

I have the cure as well!

Cheers

If you have the COSCAST Head on the C20XE Engine then you shouldn't suffer any porus head problems.

Thanks - I know a bit about the porous head problems, because there's a chap on the WSCC bbs (DAZ 4) with an identical car who has them. If you know how to fix them, I'm sure he'd appreciate a call!

For all its faults, at least my car's coolant remains clean for now - I just need to get the distributor replaced (probably by a 3D ignition system) and the battery/starter problem sorted...

Cheers

Tell DAZ4 to talk to Paul at Headway in Wales 01938 554858.

Mind you it's a while since I have spoken to him but give it a go anyway.
