| I have an Aussie MkII RS2000 in Ford Sno White. I also now have a
black Sierra RS Cosworth but no way will I part with my MkII.
Question: Are these people claiming up to 190hp with normally
aspirated Cossie engines in their Escorts, fair dinkum? My Cossie is
supposed to have 150kW (about 200bhp) and that is on 9lbs boost!
Has anyone put a Sprintex on a 2.0 OHC?

| I know a chap who has just sold his Escort RS to fund further work on a
project involving a 3 door Sierra shell, Cosworth bodykit and spoilers
and a 2.0 L Pinto engine, with a turbo bolted onto it. Not sure what
the bhp from this will be though.

A Cosworth 2-litre engine (BDA or derivative) should produce about
100 bhp per litre in a highly tuned form (as fitted to RS1800s, etc).
The Cosworth headed GM 16 valve two litre is capable of 185 bhp in a
fairly mild state of tune, so 200 BHP should be easily attaianable.

| A friend of mine is running a 2 litre Cosworth in his MkII Escort rally
car. The engine was prepared by Nelson Engines.It runs twin 48 DCOE
carbs and produces 300++ bhp very reliably.
On the 'wacky' side - An artical in the current Performance Ford Mag.
has a MKV Escort with a Ford Cossie motor with 600++ Bhp.
Last years winner of the Verta Fast Ford Challenge ran an RS2000 with
a 540 Bhp cossie motor. (0-60 4.6 Sec. Max 155 Mph)
190 Bhp - Easy.

| 8.13 | Of course thats easy. | SAC::ADAMS_R | | Mon Apr 13 1992 16:58 | 8 |
| Ah, but these are normally aspirated and running carbs not injection.
The latest 'fast car' has a Cosworth engined escort which pulls a
rather dissappointing 16.5 second quarter mile. My MkII RS2000 with
twin 40's and a very mild but not standard cam did 16.43. I did a 16.8
with the standard carb. All with a single cam head.
