Default mk6 escort 1.8 rs2k engine swap

hey everyone,
not sure if this is in the right section or not but i got a mk5 rs2k and want to move this to my mk6 escort which currently has a 1.8 in it.

is there alot of work involved and should it be a straight swap?
i know the mounts will be different but will the rest of the parts from teh mk5 fit ok for the conversion?

thanks in advance.
dan.

yes mate you can swap the whole lot from the mk5 to the mk6.
the rs down pipe may even fit the 1.8 system but the mk5 system will not fit the mk6 apparently.
pm me if you need more info as noone seems to reply on here
