Default mk3 escort 85

Alrite folks,
Can anyone answer some questions for me...
Ive just bought a very tidy no rust mk3 85 escort 1.1l ohv. Eventually there's gonna be a upgrade to a xr2/xr3 engine. For now, though can someone tell me the following, is a rev counter easy to connect? will me old faithful rs2000 wheels fit on, like on me mk4 xr. Do mk4 recaros fit straight in. Is it easy to fit the dig.clock mirror thing, from xr3i's to ma motor?

cheers Baz

Rev counter ist easy. If there's no cable to your instrument (green) then just connect it from the dizzy or the ignition coil.

RS2k wheels fit the MK3 and also the MK4. These cars are very similar.
