Don't forget the RS1700T but that was an entirely seperate entity.
A normal Series 2 will only ever be a 1.6 CVH from the factory

I don't know the specific ins and outs of the RS1700T, IIRC Cosworth had their hands in on it.........

RS1700T was so far away from a MK3 Escort that it's not worth worrying about in this discussion - It's how all Mk3's should have been - RWD! BDA turbocharged engine
no relation at all to CVH
