I have a 1780 cross flow built by Jeff Harris 154bhp 14sec quarter mile at the pod, Harris boys don’t fuck about 😎

I’m watching this on the toilet and I keep thinking I’ve got a leak !! 😂

The Harris lads are legends. When I went to the UK last I was stoked to visit Jeff and James and they are truly great guys always there for a chat and ready to help

i remember reading about the harris boys in classic ford in the late 90s/early 00s. they had a lot of respect back then

My mate owned this RS2000 back in the early 90's. Nice to see its still going.

Excellent informative review. They certainly build a hooligan of an engine, sounds just like the rally cars

Great video pal,i got my stainless system and Webber’s from HPE. Very good to deal with and fair priced ,they took the time to make sure i had the package that was best for me.would recommended them to anybody

Nice review mate.

Another brill video !

Amazing looking car can't beat old school escort

Its a thing of beauty.

Love that car

That’s well sorted. Have you ever thought of getting a strut brace ?

Had a few RS2000 back in the 90’s. In a ‘72 BMW nowadays but still have a lot of love for Escort. #bmw16v02

Hey mate, lovely car. What gearbox are you running in that?

The knowledge has been passed down from Ron and the generations that have followed have added to this you only get to know what works by spending time building constantly trying different things so u know what works and what dosent and that takes long time thats what u pay for hpe have seen over 240bhp out of a pinto which is some going

That dripping tap made me wanna piss!

Hi John, I'm loving the chanel & the RS looks great 👍. You seem very knowledgeable & I was wondering if you could give me some advice/help with my RS2000? I see that you're local to me from where you've been driving. I'm in Pensby & have had my car since I was 18 (a long time ago, lol!) It's been stored for the last 30+ years & is a 'rolling shell'. I had to re-shell it but never got round to building it back up as I boughta XR4i instead at the age of 21. The shell needs work before I start to get it back to the condition it deserves. Thanks in advance Dave B.

I'm out of my league as where to start with it. It's had a rear quarter & the trans tunnel has a big dent (probably from the impact that resulted in the rear quarter? I'm going to buy a MIG & plan on doing the welding myself (I can arc weld but never tried MIG) I'll probably replace the floor pans while I'm at it but need to know it's straight first & how to brace it before cutting it all out. Can I put my number on here or will everyone else see it? I'm working away this week but can take some pictures at the weekend perhaps. Or look up my name on FB, my profile picture is my 2013 triumph daytona 675r. I'll be back at the diggs about 6 & will have more time then. Thanks for getting back so quickly. I bought the shell from Ian Harwood back in the day.
