Hey guys I'm just starting a new project and was wondering due to funds I'm using a standard 2.0 sierra as a doner car till I can afford the cossie engine loom, I'm fitting the floor pan into a mk3 escort but was wondering will the t5 fit the standard gearbox tunnel and are the rear beams the same for the LSD, and what you guys reckon on a 4x4 mk3 instead of the lively rwd

 

Cossie rear beams are all the same apart from the actual width of the top sides that go either side of the diff, some(4wd) 7" and 2wd 7 1/2", but easy to get round using either diff in either beam cutting 1/4" of each end of the diff mount when using a 2wd diff in a 4wd beam, or using 1/4" spacers on the 4wd diff in a 2wd beam.

Oh wicked thank you, I'll go 2wd then got more options and room then, also do ya know the length of driveshafts I will need too keep the width the same as cossies are wider
