Cool Glad it's possible

We (The Norfolk RS group) are making a track car from a Mk4 Escort, powered by a Mondeo 2.0 Zetec, and just really looking for advice/guidance about what to expect (stuff to modify, manufacture, cut, etc) when we drop the Zetec lump in to the Escort, so any advice is welcome

Wow is it really as simple as take the old one out and dump the new one in

I would of thought there might be some wiring work involved

In me own ikkle world, mon

If you don't ask you don't know

And, I'm not really up on Escorts, Zetecs and C(or Z)VH's, I'm a Sierra and YB boy but always willing to learn new things

Thanks for all the links so far chaps
