Discontruction off MK4 S2 1990 with 300bhp+
Hi ppl! one moore time I need some help, or some advise 
This is my project link
At this pint i got my engine at Jamsport, probably in 2 weeks will be done, so at this point i decided to go and reinforce and paint... all metal and electric work in the car.
I got a new set of ARB Mk3 RS 1600I, so that need to be fitted properly too.
So what i need to know is...
What i need to ask my mecanic to do with the car???
Where it need some moore atention in this car´s? some important places to ask him? there´s some tricks to do until we are in the process?
What i need to buy and check with him?
If money can buy such perfection what i need to tell him to do? Iwould like to have it mint as possibel!!!
I don´t want rollCage! so it need to be tight and strong enough for the new engine!
ps: the engine will bee mapped properly for 220/230 bhp, and yes i can have it for 300 plus bhp with a second or third new pre-set mapping!
Sorry about my bad English!
If you can get a set off picture and show this would be esaier for my mecanic!
His reputation are in the base of old Ford as MK1 rallye and Mk2... what he need to know?
Thx ppl
Cheers

For a start the gearbox craddle will be an issue as with the Mk3 Escort the front gearbox mounting is actually on the part you want to fit, not 100% sure but if the rear gearbox mounting of a Mk3 will bolt to a Mk4, if it does then you'll need to get rid of the craddle and use the front and rear mountings from an S1/RS1600i, Also you'll need a gearbox from the Mk3 as the mounting point for the front mount are cast into the gearbox casing.
