Hi lads just a quick question. Do the rs cvh engine have the same crankkshaft as the efi xr3i engine? Thankyou.

 

Yes, so long as the turbo engine is an LNB and not an LNA. The LNA has a different oil pump and drive

 

Ok mate how will i know difference or shall i just bust 3i lump and hope for best

 

The engine number will start with the 3 letters your looking for, is at the front (exhaust) side of the block and the cambelt end. So imagine it as the top left corner in vehicle. Basically as long as its not an S1 engine you'll be ok
