Default Differences bottom end XR2i 8V <-> FRST

What are the differences between the bottom end of the XR2i 8V and the FRST except from the engine code?

I know from ERST's of changed crankshaft bearings, other oil sump, oil feed for the turbo, other pistons...

But for the FRST?

Fiesta rs turbo and the escort rs turbo are the same bottom end's just the frst has a crank sensor fitted. The only thing the xr2i has that is the same as the frst is the crank sensor
