Clutch stuff. Just wondering but I think I'm right about it
My MK3.5 Fiesta SI is SORNed as the engine popped and I got a hold of an Escort Finesse (2000 plate) with the phase 2 1.6 silvertop and BC gearbox (well, it looks exactly the same as the fiesta one). The Fiesta has the phase 1 1.6 silvertop.
The escort needs a clutch so I'm guessing it should be a direct swap? Possibly move over the flywheel as well? The Fiesta had it's clutch done summer last year and has never really been launched or anything.

Re: Clutch stuff. Just wondering but I think I'm right about it
if the flywheel is the same size, i think the escort is a 220mm clutch then you could swap it over no problem

Awesome. Thought so. Both cabled, the escort can take 210 or 220mm clutch that I know which the fiesta has.
Fiesta doesn't need it, in fact that's getting an engine which might require an entirely different gearbox anyway
