I’ve tried to upload some pics , having a spot of IT trouble .
Damn and damn

Somebody please let me know if that has worked ?
Should be a pic of my door card I made

The simplified door card with the red strap looks great :)

New dash in the process of being built , getting there, slow process , push start and toggle switches for the windows yet to do.

198.6 bhp , makes for a very interesting lightweight MX5

The 2.5 conversion also works very well.

Yes, you get a lot of torque with that as well. I actually saw a Xedos V6 in Lunnun today. Haven't seen a Ford Probe for yonks. Very popular in Scotland apparently.

Mazda/Ford Duratec 2.5 from a Ford Fusion in mine.
Did it last year, no issues, it was from a wrecked 2017 with
only 12K miles on it. Perfect!

Is that the 4cyl Duratec?

Yes it is. Only minor mods, exchanging some parts from the 2.0.
ECU needs a reflash too.

How did you get around the dash warning lights with the Ecu ?

reflash and wiring kit from Datatronics. Expensive.

Last few days have been spent “squeak finding” with some good results.
One was the base of the window frame inside the door, easy fix once the door card was removed. The other was the supercharger, broken bracket. Again easy enough to fix once the charger was removed.
However now I’m getting paranoid and keep thinking I can hear stuff that wasn’t there before.
