The other side of this is worse and it needs so much small things done. Its a 1.9L Mine is so much cleaner than this one. The Radiator is brand new too, so I want to take that and just some small backup pieces for mine. Maybe the cat, I have a friend that can get me good money for it.

Honestly I would wait for a 5 speed GT to come around. I know you want a stick but once you have the 1.9 out its real easy to put the BP right in. The longest part is making it a 5-speed. I did it not too long ago. If you need help just give me a buzz. I can do it in a couple hours or less. Isn’t that bad at all once you’ve done it.

I’m just going to wait, besides that tranny had a lot of miles on it. I just put a new fuel pump and filter in it a bit ago. I love the ease of access to everything on escorts. Just pop the back seat out and POW!!! its right there. I believe I have a vaccuum leak now though, so I’ll look for that tomorrow. I also am planning on getting a new muffler soon, so for fun I took a hammer to my old one to see how it sounds. nice throaty sound like kellersvts gt did, just not as loud.

And to Kellersvt, I now know how it feels to have fuel squirting all over open cuts on your hands. That haynes repair manual is really helpful too.
