Default will a cvh engine go onto a mk 4 1.25 fiesta box?

just curious as cambelt went on saturday and i have an rst engine sitting around which i was gona save for a ka or escort cab but might put it in this if it will go on this box.

i have 2 gearboxs to go with the engine(one fiesta and one escort) but they use cable clutches.

thanks

I am pretty certain the Fezza will be an IB5 box but don't know if this will fit the CVH, at a guess I should think not.

an ib5 is the same as a bc bell housing.

problem youll have is the right hand side engine mount for the cvh. youd have to make up some sort of bracket to hang it onto.

making a mount is no problem. so your saying the cvh engine will go strait onto the ib5 box?
