I'm pretty sure the Escort and FRST cams differ although I wouldn't like to put cash on it. FRST and XR2i cams are the same

RSTs always used the cams of the n/a engines. XR3, XR3i MFI and EFI. There are little differences between carb'd, MFI and EFI stock cams. But you can use the ERST in a FRST. One of them will bring little more power to the other engine... Can't really remember which one to combine with which engine...
