Cosworth Sierra Steering Wheel This sporty 3 spoke design
leather wrapped steering wheel is standard factory issue on the Sierra
Cosworth and RS500 models. The smaller wheel diameter (13.9 inch) helps
make the steering ratio more effective and the fatter rim grip offers both comfort
and control. Wheel is available in black and included center horn button with
Ford logo and horn symbol.M322
pB Cosworth Sapphire Steering Wheel This 3 spoke leather wrapped
wheel from the Sierra Sapphire 4x4 steering wheel is a departure on the
original Coswoth version. It's wider center spokes are positioned lower for
comfortable hand position and a better view of the instrumentation. The smaller
wheel diameter (13.9 inch) helps make the steering ratio more effective and the
fatter rim grip offers both comfort and control. Wheel is available in black and
included center horn button with Ford logo and horn symbol.M322A
Standard Horn Button for the standard XR4 steering wheel we have the
European "Ford" oval logo horn button. Just the thing for finishing the interior
off while fitting Ford logos to the exterior.

pC Contoured Dash Overlay just the ticket for covering up a cracked
vinyl dash pads which are so common on the XR4 & Scorpio. This moulded
plastic dash overlay is simple to install and covers up a world of sin, quickly
returning the interior to its original splendor.
note: supplied in black can be easily
painted to match interior color

pD White Gauge Face Set Colored gauges are quite the rage. They add
a very unique look to the interior, and are easy to read in daylight or when
illuminated at night. We have a gauge face kit that will replace the standard
(black) speedo, tach/boost, fuel and water temp, gauges and indicator lamps
with a thick self adhesive mylar faces that are white in color. These gauge
faces are manufactured specially for BAT by a original equipment instrument
supplier to Ford, GM, Vauxhall so quality is outstanding. They illuminate from
the rear "back light", just as the standard gauges, and will not opaque with age
like typical cheap reproductions will. An added benefit of our gauge face kit
is the speedo is calibrated beyond 85mph all the way to 150mph. Updating
earlier cars with 85mph speedos is a snap.

170 mph Speedometer For the owners of land based cruise
missiles we offer the original equipment Sierra Cosworth speedometer
calibrated in mph (170 in white) and kmph (270 in yellow) with re-setable
trip-meter. A slight bit of tweaking is required to fit.

150 mph Speedometer Sierra XR4's and later Merkurs came with a more
realistic 150 mph speedometer which easily replaces the American (only
calibrated to 85 mph) version.M341

Performance Engine Bearings2.3L At engine rebuild time one item
not to skimp on are engine bearings. We supply only the finest ACL/Vandervell
heavy duty lead-indium type bearings. All bearings are not alike, regardless of
who's name is on the box. Lead-indium bearings, not lesser reticular tin-
aluminum, are the only type you will find in quality performance engines.

on fasteners is false economy. As a minimum install a set of H.D. rod bolts and
nuts for an added degree of reliability.

2.3 Turbo Inlet Hose We have a version of this (recently discontinued
by Ford) hose that links the turbo outlet pipe to the throttle body on XR4Ti,
T-Bird & SVO. Ours is higher specification 4-ply Silicone (blue) rated to over 600
degrees, 190 psi burst pressure- better & cheaper than the original ! M22H

Exhaust Components We offer the Modern Performance line of
exhaust related items for the XR4Ti including full systems (hi-flow down pipe,
converter and muffler) as well as cat back systems (excludes converter).
Exhaust piping and mufflers are constructed in heavy 14 gauge aluminized
tubing, converters and mufflers are straight through design for minimum
restriction. These systems are unparalleled for performance and sound great
too. The 3" down pipe can be added to standard or
Borla systems for increased
performance. We also stock the standard Ford cast iron exhaust manifolds
(which are prone to cracking) or alternate stainless tubular exhaust headers.

Engine Components
Utilizing a design similar to the earlier German
2000 OHC "Pinto" engine the 2300 "Lima" en-
gine eventually replaced the 2000 OHC in most
North American Ford 4 cylinder vehicles from
1974 on. Built for lower maintenance with the
addition of hydraulic lash
adjusters the 2300
was designed to
operate in a lower
RPM range using
its larger displace-
ment and in-
creased torque to
its best advan-
tage. Perfor-
mance turbo-
charged versions
of the 2300 began
to appear in 1979 in
the Mustang/Capri and continued through the
80's in a more refined and powerfull EFI turbo
version. A reduced bore 2000 displacement
"Ranger" truck engine (from 1983-87) was also
produced. Some late production "Lima" engines
are equipped with hydraulic roller cam and valve
train, and other versions use dual spark plug
cylinder heads. The 2300 is a fairly rugged
engine in its stock form, however some compo-
nents will require up-rating with performance
components if high RPM duty is required. The
"Lima" series turbo and normally aspirated en-
gines respond quite well with a bit of perfor-
mance tuning and though lacking in refinement
do give quite a bit of bang for the buck.
