reversed b16 powered mk2 escort


Thats insane! F**king mental! Sounds amazing i hope i see this in the flesh at one of the rallys!!
 
If anyone wanted more info on the build you can contact keith directly, he's very open with information and very helpful!
 
What gearbox does it run to make it rear wheel drive?
 
its using a Dave Plant gearbox, but any gearbox like a quaife, tractive or sadev could be used when a bell housing is made to suit the honda engine
 
Interested to know how you go about making the B series engine run clockwise any more info on that Eoghain?

This engine was built by Keith Mcmullen in CIT in cork, it has been made rotate in the clockwise direction so a conventional rwd gearbox is bolted to the engine.

circa 220-230hp i'm told.

Keith builds a standard rotation engine for civic's/integra staying 1600cc with power up to 235hp,

they have been well proven in irish rallying.

don't think it would be a cheap job though haha!

but man it's loud as hell! sounds amazin tho
 
this is just a brief explaination i got from keith when i was talking to him about doing the same to a b series but running it in FWD with a sadev sequential.

pistons are rotated in the block 180 degree's, custom cams, dry sump the engine, never asked about the water pump... also different tesnsior set up is required for the timing belt.

and its not as expensive as you might think! the most expensive part is the dry sump system.
