now would that bolt on to my 1.8 bp? i want to get the right parts here and i dont have the money to buy the wrong parts

Nope! The 1.6 is shorter than a 1.8

getting at the heater core

i was getting ready to do a coolant drain and fill at school when i saw water leaking underneath my car but not coming from anywhere, to find out my heater core had gone bad. i was getting ready to drain and fill and do a compression test to see where i stood on having to change the head gasket but for now the test will have to wait.

for now here are some pictures of my car without a dash, its kinda dirty, and the dash is nasty but im swapping it out next spring.

but the best news is the other guy helping didnt do everything right and now i have no dash lights, the radio isnt working right, and no heater/ac controles other than fan speed. woot now to take everything apart and find the problems in the morning

sorry its been a while, money has been short and hard to come by, im waiting to get my returns on my school loans to finish everything.

but sadly i had a big step back today.

took my eyes off the road for 2 second to look up a another car trying to cross the street stoped with the front end in my lane. with a slow reaction, i cliped the guy taking some damage to the pass. side of my car. snaped my tie rod, sending the tire into my suspension, bending, and damage to the bumper, fender, and door.

this is a serious set back, im thinking of just buying another escort gt, with a better body and putting my turbo stuff into that. its just finding another one thats a manual, everyone one ive seen in my area is an auto. but i have some pictures of all the stuff i have so far. i was able to get an evo 8 fmic, i have some 460 cc injectors out of an rx7, the bp26 exhaust manifold and so on

i'd say get another GT because thats too much in the wrong direction. I love my car in all but its not worth 2 to 3 grand plus time to get it right and then start modifying it.
