what is needed to fit a rs2000 l4 engine in a 97 mod escort with a chv engine? exept the ecu and wiring loom off course. can i use the original gearbox? if so, what clutch do i need? one for the rs2000 item or one for the regular cvh gearbox? can i use a rs turbo clutch?

and are the engine mounts the same in my car as in an original rs2000?

and will i have any problems with the alternator, powersteering etc?

 

It would be easier to fit the lighter ZETEC. The ZETEC, if tuned properly, can produce just as much bhp as the RS2000 engine and is cheaper.

 

yeah do a zetec much cheaper and just as fast and there is no such thing as a mk7 escort
