Default Escort rs 2000

Does anyone know if a 2.3 galaxy head will fit a rs 2000 block?

It will, but I believe it will drop your compression ratio, and the bores are a different size, so I don't know how well it would all line up...

Out of interest, why would you want to?

I can understand putting the RS2000 head on the 2.3 bottom end, in fact it's been done loads but why do it the other way round?
