New Member, hello

[TJB22]

Hi, wanted to say hello. Picked up my Westfield last week. Car was in storage and recently recommissioned and through the IVA. 
 

Pinto 2.1 from Vulcan Engineering and I’m running in gently and checking the car for every thing I can tighten!
 

Loving it and wanting to maintain it as much as I can myself.

Nice looking car. What's the story behind getting the IVA done, was it built and not registered ?

[Craigieboy]

Welcome, lovely car and I grew up with Pintos. Brings back memories, mostly of adjusting the valve clearance 😄

Hi TJB, congrat’s on your purchase, car looks superb 👌 drive & enjoy 🤛👍

[TJB22]

@Steve G. car was built and the owner sadly passed before he could enjoy it. His wife stored and decided to sell recently to the chap I bought from. He set back up so to speak and put through IVA and registered fully.

Welcome to wscc Vulcan engineering they have been about for some time I used to run 2.1 pintos in my escort rs with some of their bits on one run really nice had 207 bhp at the flywheel had cosworth grind my own camshaft profile for that one good solid engine a little heavy by today's standards and they crank breath a bit when pushed hard oil catch tank solves it but so easy to work on I did find that these engines like a good old run in period i used to do 1,000 to 1,200 miles to be sure have fun in your new car
