24v v6 in an mk1/2 escort can it be done has it

[MARK FRST]

as above if so what are the pitfalls problems

[turnover]

yes it will go in no probs but a bit under powered for the size of the engine and lazy reving

[Beakster]

Yes, here's a twin turbo one in a mk2:

 

 

Great engine. 200bhp Naturally Aspirated for not a lot of money, and very driveable too. A 4 cylinder making that much power will cost a lot of money and not be well behaved for daily driving.

200 - 220 under powerd from a 2.9 ??

 

Heat and size will be the main issues, or lots of bulkhead cutting and reshaping to get it right back so it's doesn't ruin the balence of the car (as in the pic).

I considered this for a bit. But at the end of the day. Unless you want a strip eating escort or to completely gut the front end to get it to handle. I would just keep the weight down and stick to a 4-5 pot engine. If money is an issue look at Nissan CA18DET and SR20DET engines. I decided it was worth the money keeping it pinto on 45s

That looks a tidy instalation , nice one..
