What year scorpio is it.

Over here the SCORPIO was the BUGEY from 1995 , pror to that it was the granada.

If it's the BUGEYE then it will be a 16V engine. The downpipe may be different and the inlet is most certainly different. It will also be runnign EEC-V engine management with the ford PATS immobilisers system

The Escort RS2000 loom and ECU can be adapted to run the scorpio 16v engine. though.


If it's a Granada then it probably has the same head gasket as yours but if it's running well then it would be worth it anyway.

You can then strip the old engien at your leisure to see whats up.
