A jaw dropping motor. Hats off for guy that did the refurb ❤.. It's nice to know that Paul is human and not up to all of the details regarding this /these cars. Gr8 to hear the Hmm and Hmm's when questioned. Definitely get the original drivers to sign any part of this historical motor. Keep up the Gr8 content 👍

Always loved these, the livery is iconic, hopefully see it up close at a show soon and nice to see it back in the U.K. Still up for doing a video of my Sierra, think we spoke about it a while ago via fb, its unfortunately had to get a load of unplanned engine work but hopefully ready later this year.

Sweet fan boy moment. Remember these racing in period (was friends with my dad 😃) Richard brought the non race version to my local school fete as he lived up the road. He’s still going but age is taking its toll. His Son Michael has taken on Longman Racing now, still down in Christchurch.

It won’t be running the original ECU (ignition module) with being on dizzy. Be curious if has gearbox sensor lead or any of the 16i wiring under the bonnet (again I’m guessing not as can’t see the 16i grommet) easy enough to put onto twin coils if that was wanted.

Why do you guy keep buying Australia and New Zealand race cars? Is it because those guys build the best race cars? I seem to remember you saying an Australian guy named Dick Johnson, built the world's fastest Ford Sierra RS500 Evo.

Fuel fillers may be different because one of them is filler the other one is vent valve. When you filling big amount of fuel in short time in to the tank you need to have a way to went equaly huge amount of pressure. If you want 10 galons of fuel in 5s you need to evacuate 10 galons of air in 5s somehow (kind off). They probably fitted additional tank filler on the side of the car just for filling it before race in more conventional way (without specialized race cans).
