Bought myself tawny brown LHD mk1 Escort recently and sent it to my local garage to see if he can get the 1.1 engine started after laying off road since 1995.
Was told the engine knackered, I have spare Volvo 1.7 turbo engine (B18FT) with complete wiring and ECUs etc that was for my R5 cabriolet but wondering if I can put it in Escort instead and mate it with Ford’s 5-speed gearbox and bell-housing?
