1.6 CVH RST is the same engine like the XR2 MK2 1.6 CVH carb.

You have to do some mods to make the downpipe fit, convert the fuel tank and put the injection and wiring loom into the car

Earlier when we talked you mentioned that I need XR2 or Diesel driveshafts. What else? Would escort engine mounts be OK in fiesta?

yes, you should use the bigger driveshafts. They are better for the power figures of a RST engine.

Use all XR2 MK2 engine mounts, they are fine with any CVH. Escort ones don't fit the MK2 iirc

Gearbox mounts should be the same, engine mounts on 1.1 were different, not sure about the diesel ones...
