Default erst engine into a mk6 escort

right guys need some advice. please dont shoot me down straight away lol. i have a mk6 (i think) escort estate with a 1.4 cvh. i was building a zetec turbo for it but have lost all interest. so want to put an erst engine in instead which im hoping will be a lot easier.
can i put an mfi engine in even though mine is efi? or do i need to convert said engine to efi? and what else will i need? any help appreciated.

thanks chris

mk6s didnt have cvhs mate (as far as i know), post a pic up of the car and engine and someone will identify it for you

and i think itd be easier (and better) to use EFI, so a complete fiesta rst engine may be easier to use

They did do a 1.4 cvh in a mk6 escort.I would use EFI for your turbo engine.I think its alot better than the mfi.
