I think imgur has no limits of any kind?

That should be doable for 1000-ish GBP without problems

Or you can load a lorry and have them sent over here. I doubt any can't be saved and the price would be in region of 1000 GBP tops....

I got it. Pleased to say it arrived swiftly, signed and numbered :grin: It is a nice read. Nice touch is that now I know Ford internal code for puma was SE161 :wink: I would just like to know for which model was the 1.7 engine meant originally, as it was already mentioned on the other puma site that...

I had buzzing at sort of the same revs coming from the scuttle panel which was a bit deformed. It resonated in that rev range only when it was coldish. Check my thread...

So, a smallish update. I am sorry that progress is very slow, but I am just so busy lately and by the time I get home it is pitch dark and cold and since I have no heating in my mancave the things are not progressing as I would like them to! So I am now focusing mainly on research and planning... An...

Just ordered it in. Will share my thoughts once it arrives....

A bit from here, a bit from there....

All is there on the net, you just have to search and study

Hi Sinisa The trigger wheels I've seen are usually quite light duty so to weld those to the flange of the driveshaft would be quite difficult but i'm sure you could epoxy them on but is there room on the inner flange because the flange is quite recessed down into the gearbox and there are strengthe...

No, no, I thought of the inner flange where the driveshaft enters the gearbox. Of course, the driveshaft would move around and that can not happen. Hmmm, vent slots in the disc are interesting idea, never occured to me! Don't know if that would work, or not... But my question was mainly about the pr...

Ok, nothing to show for yet, but I have been doing some research. The first thing to be sorted out is the Vehicle Speed Sensor signal. As you know, the B6 gearbox is new, meant for modern canbus cars and it has no provision for VSS. It is not needed, as the ABS sensors are used for getting the signa...

Hi Richard,

You might want trying imgur. I use it after photo bucket started blackmailing people and not letting them download their photos at once...

But really, what is it about the hubs that is different? Angle of the shock absorber inclination due to the wider track? I really think that can be sorted out with regular hubs (enlargin the opening and producing an bespoke inpart to take the shock absorbers to the right angle). The driveshafts are ...

You are not exactly joy division, are you, James?

Any chance on FRP parts? I would fancy converting mine to FRP look......

Hmmm nope.... its basically just connected. I don't do electrics so it maybe that I've done it wrong in the first place.

I am talking about this: http://comex-europe.com/cms/en871-elect ... ontrol.asp

Do you use Electronic modul which gradually adjusts the speed of fan according to the temperature of the radiator?

You weren't paying attention: https://www.scs-delta.co.uk/ford-ecoboost-ecu

Standalone ECU and they modify the loom....

This was the highest I have seen. The odometer is in km.



The engine was spotless, and running like a clock!

Not sure what you mean by lining up? The manifold is bolted to the head and turbo to it. The ports on the ecoboost head are different to the ones on 1.7 so the manifold would not fit to it. And 1.6 ecoboost head would bolt to the 1.7 block, but the cooling and oil opening are not the same so it woul...

Cheers, guys! TBH I am a bit scared by an apparent ease of this conversion. Of course, there is lot of work ahead, but everything seems to check out and, in theory at least!, should work as intended. As I am old enough, I am just waiting for a major setback at some point to make you think: why have ...

Just had a chat with nice gents from SCS Delta. Had some concerns about the fuel pump. Good News, regular fuel pump can be retained as it forms the low pressure fuel line in DI engine. The regular fuel pump will supply the engine with fuel at pressure in region of 3.5 - 5 bar and that is what is nee...

Obviosuly, the hydraulic servo as we know it is very difficuilt to implement on this engine. Something else is needed, and I had an idea :idea: There is ever growing electrifying movement where people get for peanuts older cars with usually very worn or broken engines and convert them to electric pr...

These are the holes that take on studs in puma https://i.imgur.com/T5lIvPJ.jpg The third one is also there, but is covered by exhaust manifold and blocked by the oil feed line for turbo https://i.imgur.com/X0ksCjj.jpg https://i.imgur.com/ns5lHrh.jpg On this image I attached the studs to the two bott...

Since engine is rather big and heavy, had to modify the palette and screwed some wheels to it. https://i.imgur.com/sWHReVV.jpg https://i.imgur.com/QPSGrFz.jpg Engine is now movable... The first problem: Puma uses mechanical (hydraulic) servo system. Fiesta ST180 has EPS (electric power steering). Th...
