Saph 2wd will fit ,

need a slihtly shorter bell housing tho , or fit a hydrolic clutch .

I just had a thought , use a 1800 siera bell housing ( if its a shorter one ) or the flywheel , as this may be spaced out a little further

I too always wanted to see this, infact it seems like there might be more room for fancy manifolds n big turbos that way round....

Do it greg

i was gonna do this a while back ( RWD CVH turbo),

but by the time i managed to sort a rwd shell out i had seen the light ,

2.1 16v zetec ,

i recon 300 HP zetec in a RWD escort is gonna be loads of fun , a hell of a lot lighter than a cossy lump .

My CVH engined Westfield's got a Seirra type 9 gearbox. Not sure what the clutch is though.

This is what was gonna happen with my Fiesta, the end transmission spec decided was a 2wd MT75 box with 4x4 Cossie internals. The only problem I was having was the flywheel / clutch combo - wanted a Cossie clutch for a nicepedal action but needed a custom flywheel built up.
