It will fit but the FRST block has a hole in for the crankshaft sensor. A good machine shop will be able to machine the hole in though.

Don't forget you'll need to change the oil drain pipe stub if your fiesta is still running a T2.

The 90 spec S2`s DONT have the hole for the pickup as they never ran a crank sensor, it was only when the fiesta came out and it changed to EFI!

later S2s, so only 90-spec (but not necessary ALL of them) had the block with the crank sensor hole in them but still ran MFi - the hole was just that - a hole

you could get a trigger wheel set up fitted to crank pulley to overcome the lack of hole in the block
