Default c20xe in a mk3 escort ?

how hard is it to mount...

can you use the custom bell housing the old skool lot use with the type9 with a bc box from a s1, and what clutch and flywheel would you use.

the engine ive seen is on carbs so easy to wire up ect.

thanks

Know of a couple of Mk 2 XR2s that run them using the Vx box so 'doable'.

I know of a complete xe calibra going if your interested? Then you would have everything you need? Car is in watford. It was actually my car i sold to a mate to do an engine conversion on an astra but it never happened. (providing he still has it, he did last week??)

The engine loom is totally separate from the car loom so easy to run the SFI if you wanted
