wot power gains could you guesstimate on this conversion!

not much TBH. The extra torque will make off boost drving nicer though :)

yer i bourght it last night for £150, it came as a bare bottom end with oil pump! its got low compression pistons same compression ratio as a escort rst! hes had it all honed! and a full rebuild internally! all thats left for me to do is reposition the crank sensor and dip stick on the other side! everything else is the same really! carnt wait! :D hopefully on the rollers it will see a nice gain in torque!
