Isn't the BDT a BDA derivative - which is based on the corssflow block but is alloy?

You mean the RS1700T I think , not realy an Escort a such just sort of ! lol. Most ended up in South Africa with Mick Jones I think.
A derivative of the same engine family . BDA/BDG/BDT many specs for each though !!
Started as a 1.6 in the Escort Mk 1 RS1600,then 1800 in MK2 . Has been built as low as 1300 cc I think.'Works' cars were perhaps :roll: up to 2200 !!!!!
RS200 said:like all race cars they need to be warm before you put your foot down ! 6R4 was worse ,that had to tick over in gear on axle stands before you ran it,just could not change gear,till they found a new oil !!
Just the thing to get the takeout home warm though ! :lol: No boot to talk about for shopping !
But you cant see through the body like you can in a Stratos either !
