What would GRM stuff under the hood of a Mk2 Cortina?

2.3 Turbo from a T-Bird and an intercooler

I think you're right, the 2.3T would weigh the front down......the duratec 4cyl should be the same fitment, just flip sides for intake and exhaust....;)

This because Zetecs are cheapo, but for that classic look add this http://www.retro-ford.co.uk/shop/content/zetec-bda-rocker-cover-z057 A BDA style cam over. Yummy

I like this.

I like this.

Me too. And I kinda hate myself for it.

I like the idea of stuffing a Miata 1.8 into any small front engined RWD car that came with an inline four.
