Nice one, thanks a ton for the help mark

My engine/gearbox is in now and bolted in. Got the loom out and have layed it all out so things are in the right sort of area.

I'll have to source a thermostat from a 1.6 then, is it only escorts that had a 1.6 cvh? Any idea what year range had them? If you could post a pic of one davedew or anyone else it would be appreciated!

For the inlet manifold, is 3mm plate good enough to make the engine & carb plates? Also for the connection pipes, what kind of thickness pipe should I use? I'm guessing the inside diameter needs to be the same as the carbs (36mm) and should it be bent into a more oval shape to match the holes on the engine head?
