Hi Steve,

I would be interested in how easy this goes - i have been considering the same swap for a MK1 1300 i have.

I assume you mean the Zetec E from the Fiesta? If so it is a great little motor and would be great fun in a Escort even in stock form.

Cheers, GT

What do you need to know Steve. I have the measurements for the sump i built (Dry Sump) and i happen to have a burtons (Retro Ford) sump here as well.

I got these drawings from Turbosport (i think) ages ago. I used the basic shape of the mount, then made the connection to the crossmember to suit what i wanted. If i remember correctly the drawings as they are place the motor a fair way forward to allow for a standard thermostat housing to be used.
