Bit of an update. As good as the BA brakes are on the EF you can always stop better so I got these to put on it. Job for this weekend.
 Painted the stereo and the console plastics gloss black and got some silver buttons for the stereo.   found some silver buttons from a territory.  Have also been playing with my BA. Got some territory brakes to put on it. got the rear done but the front ones didn't fit. So found a set of BF stub assembles that should let me fit them. Have been organizing a ZF 6 speed conversion to put in it. Might get that done early in the new year.

Hey guys. been a while since I have updated my build thread. have added a few bits here and there.
Got the Brembo's on.     Have also installed an FG inlet manifold and steering wheel. The steering wheel was later removed. old water pipe removed.  FG water pipe installed.  FG manifold all fitted up.  At the All Ford Day here in SA.  This is going to be my new engine. It will need to be rebuilt because of damage that was caused from the accident it was in.  this is the ID tag from the car it came from.  Have started getting replacement parts for it. Got the rocker cover back from the painters the other day.

Forgot to update. The typhoon engine and turbo trans are now in the car and running well. Also had a custom 3inch stainless exhaust installed.
Engine being rebuilt.         Mounting the inter cooler.    Installing the engine.     Towed it to work so as to reprogram the PCM.  Back home all finished.

I thought the same thing, but maybe they are only designed for vacuum not pressure?

The FG Manifold will be going on my BA XR at the same time I do the ZF auto conversion on it. The XR front bar is at the crash shop being repaired. Not sure If I will be putting it back on yet.
