CVH Install

[MikeB]

Right I have two days of building ahead of me.
The plan is to get the chassis finished! here's hoping.

I need to make a decision on engine location for the CVH.
I bought the escort thermo housing (which blanking plate does it fit in??)

Now the question is cut the chassis rail and sit engine as far back as it will go, or leave the chassis rail and move the engine forward the inch or so it will need to clear the rail.

Zetec will be going in post IVA so I'd like to avoid the chassis chop but then again I probably wouldn't wnat to move engine and gearbox mounts and make a new prop to move the zetec back a couple of inchs later.

HELP!

Also re-reading a couple of old posts, to get the engine running my plan is zx6 carbs and megajolt, I've bought the edis module but no jolt yet. I did read it will run in limp home mode or something without the ECS, so long story short could i get the engine running on the EDIS without a megajolt/ford ECU just while I'm getting things going.
