Ben, It'd be worth either getting the crank and flywheel doweled together or some ARP flywheel bolts. Pintos love to shear these bolts off and it'd be a good idea while it's in bits. 7.5x13 X pack rims look great on this, I've got 7's on my old Escort. Luke.

Beauty.
Wish I'd bought a Capri 10+ years ago when I was looking at them as they'll never be financially viable for me now.

This looks wicked mate! What made you decide to swap the supercharged '6 for a Capri?

That is alot of money and alot of hard work there mate.
Is the belt right on that oil pump, I thought belts (even toothed ones) liked to have a little more purchase on what they are turning?

that belt design goes back to mk3 Cortina in 1972...........a lot of time & money has been spent there, but please use a better filter than TJ ?? get a mann/mahle filter on there and look after the time/cash you have spent on that engine. capri itself looks the dogs danglies !! I had a t-reg (1979) back in the day and that was interesting to drive in the wet on standard wheels & tyres.
