Ordering Your Kit Tips

Always check with JBA for current prices. Remember to advise JBA what engine you may be thinking of fitting, and decide on this, as the mounting brackets have to be fitted to the chassis for the specific engine. 
Engines are not limited to the Sierra, many other types of engines have been fitted including the Fiat twin cam and the Rover V8.
Engines can be fitted at the factory.
New propshafts and petrol tanks are available from JBA for DOHC engines.
