OK so has anyone dropped a 1.7 puma lump into a mk6 fiesta yet for track use?
I understand the common response will be just go with the st150/170 but Its not an option to go with a 2.0 in my formula (oval hotrods)
Plus the other reasons the st lumps are a lot heavier and create massive understeer on the oval tracks we use plus I have 3 spare puma engines from my current car which is a puma.
I don't want to go with the puma she'll again as much as I love it the flared arches get beaten up quite badly as there's a reasonable amount of rubbing .
Bering in mind I have the cut down loom already and this side is not an issue any idea's on how difficult it would be to mount the 1.7 lump in a mk6 ideas on what gearbox and shafts to use etc anything else that may be of help.
Cheers
Garry
