Default Fiesta RS Tranny question

Hello

I am just about to purchase a Fiesta RS transmission and was wondering what anyone could tell me about it. Could it be mated to the American Tall block 1.9's, and just how much power and torque could these gear boxes handle? Thank you

That is good to know. I am planning to run about 200 HP 200 Ft.lbs with an SVO Mustang (.60/.48) T3 at 15 lbs of boost. I will look into that Escort Tranny though thank you.
