i agree, but that engine it comes with a big cost
Almost everything worthwhile has a cost attached, but if you do as much of the work yourself as possible the cost is not to bad

Nice sounding project.
I bought a complete low mileage dry sumped Lotus tall block engine and gearbox from a crashed late 70's Caterham a few years ago with the intention of putting it into an Escort and making a TC 'replicar'
Still looking for a suitable donor but Escort prices appear to have gone crazy!

Try Dave Paveley at Groupbmotorsport in Deeside. I visited yesterday, and although deeply involved in Honda, Toyota and Subaru rally cars, he seems to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of the worldwide location of Escort shells.
