    A tip,breather at the rear of their housing can spew auto-trans fluid wich can get on the hot exhaust.Its best to route a reasonably sized hose(1/2inch) back to the filler tube(may not have one if a cortina C4 was used) or a catch tank.
    Also a Falcon linkage style shifter wont work because there is too much movement between the transmission,chassis and body.Cortina C4s had a cable shift but a ordinary styled shifter,BM and others make good cable-shifts,see ebay or a speed shop.

    Hey LandyAndy,

    Are these the breathers (See Photo) that you are referring to?? (I was told just to bridge them together..) I haven't gotten to the engine install part yet. Just getting everything else ready first.. I've already got a shifter, that I want to get for it in mind.. I think it may be a BM, will have to go and check my notes..

    Hi Wolf
    From that pic I see its a Marks adaptor.
    I would say DO NOT vent them together.
    Its different from ours,one appears to be a auto trans vent the other a transfercase vent.
    Contact Marks Adaptors for further advice.

    Thanks LandyAndy,

    I'll contact them, and see what they say. The chap I got this motor from wasn't very clear on what these were for.. All the wiring and relays on this motor are a little overwhelming, but I'll work it out. (he managed to label some of it, so that will help) I'm a bit disappointed that I'll have to move the radiator forward, but will see how things go..

    Yes, it's definitely a cross flow EFI engine.. One of the reasons I bought it..

    I had a single point (first of the EA's), pain for parts, more expensive too. You have the multipoint there though
