Muppje Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 anyone reckon it wud b worthwhile swapping my 1.8 for one of these and then tuning that up bet it would shift just wondering if it would be worth it over just a 2L upgrade. obviously its a bit ott but would make a great project if it could be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ince Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 course it could be done, and would be fast, but would probably cost alot more than just a 2l conversion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmax Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Wuldnt of thought it wuld fit tbh wivout sum serious modifications. Like cutting away the front slam panel etc. Remeber hearin of a escort that had a 3litre or sumthin in it and they had to cut loads of the slam panel and bits out.

Mike C Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 not worth the effort chassis mods would weaken the car structurally too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTi_Lockstar Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 For what you payin for it would be easier to get hold of a Focus RS enginie (same sort of price) comin in a 7bhp less and would pretty much fit straight in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4TT Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 still a lot of work, and not worth it in a escort imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4ffa Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 how much would that cost u to do i bet it would be a bit get a rs t lump fitted n tune that u dont forget if u change engine u need all the paper work to insure n tax n shite like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_aaron Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 ST220 aint 3.2's though, they are 3.0 V6 , as for fitting, the V6 barely fits in the mondeo bay never mind the escorts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotteh Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 isnt gonna fit and itsnt worth it lol unless u wanna spunk a load of cash on an escort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muppje Posted June 24, 2005 Author Share Posted June 24, 2005 yeah i know, seriously over the top for an escort. Just a thought tho.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
