  • long time cosworth owner ,now first time escos owner

    after near 30 years of cosworth ownership of 3drs ,saffs, etc i got my first escort cosworth yesterday.its a 2 owner motorsport with 51k miles on it .a mate of mobe owned it since 1999 .he offered me the oppourtunity to buy it a few months ago ,a offer i couldnt refuse being a motorsport edition.it hasnt been used on the road since 2001 and was basically built into a sprint car.it needs a little tlc to get it back to her former glory .it was built to about 540bhp running on omex 710 and has a new opplinger box ,aps etc .

              Looks good James think it would benefit from having the air filter further away from the turbo. I’m sure you’ll work your magic on it
