20B N/A side port street car build from the UK
Some of you guys will know of my last 2 FD's for those that don't here is a bit of history!
First FD ended up looking like the pic below after 5 years of hard graft and went from 100% stock to 20B N/A side port, dry sumped full track car.
Second one was only a short term build and was mostly modded before I bought it but it wasn't what you would call nicely built!
This takes me to the current project, to build a 20B N/A side port engine again but wet sump and as a street car not a track car . . . well my old man can't have all the fun in his V8 MGB!
How she looked when I first got her home.
First job was to de wiper and de spoiler the boot.
Engine bay de ABS'd and de power steered.
De power steered rack in.
Close up of the work on the rack body.
The block and stud kit with it being an 'A' series.

The intakes bolted up.
The work done to the UIM.
The LIM took a bit of work to get right but with tools like this my mates machine shop is a cool place!
Stock.
Finished.
Via this work!

At the end of the day as I said to you before I'm not mega bothered what it makes so I will have to wait and see. My current biggest issue is the TB as I want to use a 20B one but it just looks so damd fussy . . .
