you've posted in wrong section you need to re do thread in the car specific area under escort rs turbo and the answer is yes you want a blacktop head then you need to uprate the valve springs and that is it, but your bottom end might not be suitable now as your oil galleries might be blocked so not a straight swap and your compression may be to low also
