Hey
i was just wondering if anyone would be able to help, my dad bought a mk3 escort rs1600i a few months back and is currently in the process of restoring it, with a few upgrades, currently the car is on a jig fully stripped of interior and engine and having all the floor pan and wings sorted, then roll cage fitted etc etc, my dad tried to create a membership on here. but got confused by it lol so i said i would help him out he was wondering has anyione done a mk3 escort engine conversion using 2 litre vauxhal redtop, and what would be involved in the conversion. also if there are any pictures of it done.

cheers for your help.

why do you want use a redtop engine?

it would be easier to zetec it as its been done lots and conversion parts are readily avalible

Gotta be said I agree with SM

If its for somet different then fair do's but it seems a lot of hastle for no particular reason.

As an example NUTSRUS put a K series into one because of weight.

vroooom ptssssh

RWD it with a nissan SR20 DET seeing as the floorpans need replaced anyhoo, aluminium engine and lots of potential!
