wise decision, i used the escort but modidied the fuel rail for bigger injectors and had the frst fast idle valve machined onto the back.. nice mota bet it goes well. My lump was running 330bhp and went like stink, oh and a ran a escort diesel box with rst lsd and had no problems with the box except for a hell of alot of torque steer
