hahah we have wood and some long aluminum ramps. We did get Sean's car in there and it wasn't to bad

Is the Gillis Focus a 2.0 or 2.3?

Yes the motor is a 2.3. The bottom end is Cosworth . but the head is a Gillis Motorsports custom ported head with supertech (who is also local) valves springs and retainers.

i will get some pictures up that we took at the BBQ a bit later. thanks all for the support

definately a nutty amount of camber :P

[morgan@gillismotorsports]

i agree the camber was insane on the TL.. loved it

[BAHC]

so just to clarify, you guys can do custom bodywork i.e. metal fenders, radius fenders, bumper retrofit etc etc

Thanks a lot for the info, Morgan. As one of the few Focus enthusiasts out there (I have the same screenname on FocalJet), I am VERY interested in any details you can divulge about the car, most importantly the motor, differential, and suspension set-up. Did the car start as an ST, or was the 2.3 swapped in?


Oh, and to the guys at CiB, thanks for the added Focus pics in the story!!!

[handsome.garage]

Definitely a respectable shop. Are you guys hiring? Maybe a custodial tech, lol.

^^ yes we can do fenders and metal work. we had to do it on the 4door focus.. and we have a paint guy as well (the owner of the rx-7).. i recall mentioning something to you about him i think
