Escort Van ~ placing a Turbo engine into a non-turbo?

HI all,

ESCORT 1.8d 2000 (x) uk

Complete engine change -- Whats involved??-- has anyone done it??



I have an Escort Van that is all signed up and kitted out as i like it, meanin that i dont want to change the van, i also have a escort td 250 with a low milage engine - now i have a good knowledge of mechanics and have changed engines before - i also have a good knowledge of electrics...



.. so i think know the following:

1. the pump is immobillised by the key so i would have to change the barrel

2. the downpipe is differant

3. The gearbox out of the car is stronger and the shafts are from a mondeo as appose to the van having its own shafts

4. the speedo in the van is electric ( the car has a speedo cable)

5.the power steering pump is in a differant place on both

6.there are two wires coming out of the third injector on the escort td and not on the non turbo



could the aircon go??



i am also going to put the electric windows in and central locking



How hard on a 1 to 10 (1 being lower) would this be,any help would be gratly appreciated??
