Hi, how difficult would it be to fit a newer TDDI or TDCI from a mondeo etc into my 2001 escy van?
van is running fine at mo but when it does go bang I would like to fit a newer engine as I do a lot of miles with my business..

was considering this myself. parked my van and my bro's focus 1.8 tdci side by side, and yes it will fit. but, engine mounts are in completely different places, you would need to take gearbox, linkage, loom, e.c.u & clocks. would be a great conversion but loads of work.

 

cheers mate, i've got a breakers bout 3 minutes from me and i've just remapped his rs focus so i shall go and have a chat with him as his mech is very good and might have a go at transplanting one in for me..i'll let you know when i've been to see him.
