    take everything out of the EGT engine bay, and put it all into the Escort Wagon... including ECU, and harness..

          Don't forget to grab the gauge/speedo cluster from the GT.

            For future reference, it's spelled "voila", and it's cliched, so avoid using it if possible.

                no. just get EVERYTHING out of the GT's engine bay.


                and depending on the model of escort...you wont have to get the cluster...there are some wagons with a tach and all that good stuff, just remember that the 1.8's redline is 7000rpms

                              WTF? is this the same "THAPRO1" that lives with me? wtf is up with ur signature and profile?

                              but anyway...jitb37 has done crazy V6 swaps like 800 times so i dont he would find it that hard putting a 1.8 into a car that is designed to hold a 1.8
