Not sure if he will even reply. I tagged him in the hope that he would get an email notification and login. He might just reply, but I doubt it.

SelectivePC Member 79 Member For: 5y 7m 17d Posted 20/09/18 01:27 AM Share Posted 20/09/18 01:27 AM (edited) Ah, this is the tricky part. I have taken on this task of a Ford Barra in the U.S.... Florida to be exact. So almost directly on the other side of the world So "stopping by", Unfortunately isn't a option. Would you be willing to sell and ship the item? Ill PM you to reduce clutter.

conrod Member 22 Member For: 12y 6m 5d Posted 01/10/18 06:23 AM Author Share Posted 01/10/18 06:23 AM (edited) unfortunately guys I did not finish this project! I sold the van and engine too. Another Mk1 came up with a 302 already fitted, and although not as wild as this one would have been, it was much cheaper and easier to go this route. And yes, FG sump is rear bowl. Needs matching dipstick, and block will have to be drilled to suit dipstick hole. I think the early block doesn't have the boss for the rear mount dipstick, but the FG block has both, from memory!
