I was reluctantly gonna sell my mk3 3door escort estate, but have decided against this idea now.
Unfortunately, some scumbags have broken into it , so what I'm asking, if anybody can help, is how much work is involved in dropping a zetec into it. It currently has a 1300 CVH engine in it ( well whats left of it. ) They stole my rocker cover, coil set, dizzy cap and other bits. would i have to change the whole wiring loom, or would i be just better off dropping an XR2 1600 CVH in with a decent set of carbs.
Maybe one of you clever people might have a different idea for the type of engine i could fit, but in my head ( I'm not very mechanical minded, I'm a heating engineer ) the wiring loom is gonna be the problem, hopefully I'm wrong.
I'm in Derby if any body has some kind of engine for sale, or even better, maybe even fit it
Many thanks Mat
