Default Focus RS Engine into a MK5/MK6 Fiesta

Hey,

Just putting the feelers out at the moment.

Does anyone know whats involved in fitting a FRS engine into either the MK5 or MK6 Fez, preferably the MK5 really. I know its not going to be a small job. I would like to know if I could use the RS box without having to modify the gearbox tunnel.

I know its been done, so if anyone knows someone with the conversion already done would you be able to point me in their direction?

If anyone has got any info at all on this, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Drew

There's been a good 3/4 that i know of, one was built to 300bhp but the lad decided to break the car due to money issues.
