This will have been asked before but i cannot find a thread in search so is thier any reason why the escort efi block cannot be used in a efi turbo conversion?
it allready has the crank sensor so a return turbo oil pipe mod and RST internals (crank/pistions) would work?

- low compression pistons
- oil feed and return for the turbo
So you can use ANY 1.6 CVH bottom end for turbo use. You'll just need correct pistons and a solution for the oil.
I'd ALWAYS use the EFI head with the EFI inlet. There's no use to waste money and power with such an adaptor plate.

like you thinking their bomsch, well you all have verified my thinking thier, i just was a bit confused when thinking of a EFI turbo that the fiesta engine was used. when its possible and would save trying to find a FRST engine that i could (in thoery) convert the original escort efi to efi turbo as i have a mfi turbo engine allready

If you have an MFi turbo engine, either swap the pistons/rods into the efi bottom end and drill the oil return (oil feed just runs from the oil pressure sensor union) or drill the Mfi bottom end to use a crank position sensor, and use the Efi flywheel - failing that you can buy cps kits that use a trigger wheel on the pulley side of the engine?
Then use your EFi head and you are away!
