i have a 95 rs2k 4x4 but want turbo power instead of my I4, i know some will say its pointless as they kick out pretty much the same in standard trim but my reason for it is the turbo lump is alot easier to tune. but what i want to know is how easy is it to swap the engines? i know some of the late escorts used a cvh so im guessing its pretty straight forward? also would my gearbox/transfere box bolt up to the rs turbo lump? any help is appreciated thanx in advance

very straight forward swap. you'll need to get the engine mount for the cvh engine for a mk6 though as different to anything you'll currently have, you'll need to decide which way your going to run it (efi/mfi) and get appropriate bits,not sure on the box though as i know non 4x4 (mtx75) box fits fine with a few changes but not sure about yours but i'm sure some one more clued up will put you right
