The spec list above does little to reflect the time and effort that has gone into this engine (especially the head) After Bob was finished Engine has been run in and mapped on the dyno By Tommy Field at Field Motorsport to which it made a conservative 465bhp and 440ftlb of torque which we agreed was plenty for a MK2 escort!
Please bear in mind these Engines are getting rarer by the day almost, and even rarer to find a turnkey example with such pedigree.

Will split the engine and if Needed

Sorry to hear of your bad fortune.

That list of goodies seems amazing, but tbh a bit, sorry, a lot over my head. Reading through the very thorough list is there anything missing or is the car ready to be put together? Also is it going to be a track only car, I noticed the rear slicks?

I am only in Rayleigh and that looks right down my street.
