FOCUS RS Engine Swapped ESCORT RS TURBO ** 370BHP ** 

Stick those supercars! ... two lads going for a drive after work, having a laugh n chatting about the car is just perfect Adam! 👍👍👍

Imagine the future, showing kids videos like this, so they can hear how good the cars used to sound

Waving to the mobile speed camera van man 😂

That’s insane stunning car. Another Andrew Gallagher masterpiece.. Old series 2 chatter amazing 🔥🔥🔥🔥He’s no a wideooo 😂

Cant beat the colourful scottish language 😂😂👌

Lordy lordy, she’s awesome 😍 Although, the CVH burble through a Mongoose system is still the sweetspot for me like 😎

Had a nice XR3i back around 1996 in white and every time I went from Glasgow down to Whitley bay the landlord of my hotel always parked his van behind my car as he said....................Some bugger I'll nick that lol. The RS was just a different breed but I never had the pockets for one. Thanks for sharing.

0:14 Twins "only their mother can tell them apart" lolol I love these RS Turbo's. In the 90's my mate had a mint white one built from the shell up. He sold it and the guy wrote it off. This one is stunning!

Absolutely beautiful car😍 you will never beat a classic.

i dont know why adam hasnt got a million subscribers. in my opinion hes the best at this on youtube by far!

The dream spec!!only thing id do, is have 16" oem escort cossie alloys.

Great video Adam. I’ve watched most of your videos and the content and editing just keeps improving. Nice one mate 👍

Loving the car what a 90s icon and the money these Fitch now is absolutely insane just noticed how many subscribers you have now it's almost doubled since I subscribed and that wasn't that long ago so before you know it you'll have a 100,000 great content as always and looking forward to the next one Adam thanks again

So much respect for this man and his collection of our classic fords and the way he take care of his babies

Yass m8. Another great production coming from bonnie scotland. Fancy doing a video on ma standard transit custom work van seeing as your up here all the time now 🤣🤣🤣

Brilliant video yet again Adam 👌 just a quick reason why the Focus RS gearbox isn't used on the escort could be the shear amount of fabrication to get it to fit, the escort uses a solid rod type selector when the focus has a pair of cables, the escort also has a mounting brace under the box from the front crossmember to the back dont think this can be used and you probably would need to get a custom pair of driveshafts made ??? Both myself and my cuz both had series 2's back in the "day" and I've probably undone and tightened every nut and bolt on them 🙈😂👍

Love your content, Adam. Hope to see you out in this great weather with some more motors👍 Keep up the good work!

Nice! I had a Series 2 with a 1.9 conversion and massive turbo, that was quick at 255BHP. This must be insane at 370! (Defo look into gearbox, the standard ones struggled to handle standard power) Beautiful car mate.

sounds absolutely mad mate,love these vids also?its like they couple old friends just talking cars....brilliant.

Cant think of a better engine to put in one of these!

Love the Escort RS. We never had them here in Australia. Our local Escort production ceased in 1980.

I'd have a 200bhp one of these and still be very happy! Where have they all gone they used to be everywhere?!

Loving your tour of south west Scotland and our fast Ford nutters! Two sound lads so far and cracking collections of old gold.

Love it! Makes me miss my old rs turbo! Definitely different with a focus rs engine in. Credit to the owner.

What a smart looking car.....must be great fun in the rain !

Ah can drive like fuck don’t worry about that!!! Hahaha yasss what a boy. Cheers for the great content Adam 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

gorgeous car! remember my time in one of these and i couldn’t believe how much torque they have

Pure class. Loved it.

Wow very tidy RS Turbo Escort awesome with the Focus RS engine

Loverly car man and love the vids Adam keep at it

Mint S2 turbo there fella. Looks stunning and sounds mint 👊🏻👊🏻

Great engine for the car, perfect marriage and love them in red. And just noticed it doesn’t have the sunroof, love the dalblair of ayr plate 😆🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👏🏻

When you floored it it was really really hard to control, I nearly killed a load of people on a bus stop when I was 18. I turned out of a junction, was showing off the power and it lurched right across the road and I just swerved back in the last moment. Was young and stupid. Lovely cars.

I miss my S2 😫

Old skool all the way 👍👍. Love your vids Adam 👍

Another cracking video mate..

Aah man , thats a lovely spec car , Looks exactly like my old Q plate 90 spec rs turbo, same wheels , used to run at 195 bhp back in the day , even used to pop the standard yellow oil filler cap off on full boost

Another class Video. Love the old escorts me!

Epic car. Good chat. Great vid. Thanks Lads. 👏

Absolutely loved this 👍.

One minute its airdrie the next the outdoor camera is coatbridge 😂 gem of a car though 👌🏻the dipstick comes out 🤣 its all the wee quirks that make it what it is 👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Hi adam ur videos are class mate havnt seen much of ur cosworth recently noticed u wear a poppy rememberance bracelet well played buddy respect keep ur vids coming 👍👏

Cracking motor pal 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍

Cracking video, cracking motor. Had 2 S2 escort rs and a S1 rs currently running mk1 fiesta with zetec fitted can't beat an old ford

I’ve had 2 of the escort rst mk4 s2 both in black & I sold 1 then swapped the 2nd one for a fiesta mk3 rst with a 2.0 zetec turbo. It was so quick but stupidly sold that after 3 years. Now I’m saving for a Mitsubishi evo 8 & I’m going to keep it & get the engine built professionally to run around 600+whp ✌️

Could understand everything lads top motor that keep up the good work Adam

Hey from Spain , i have the escort mk4 5 Doors and im so Happy 👍

Spot on video mate 👍

Have you ever seen two guys more suited to an Escort RS Turbo...?! LOL! Reminds me of the 90’s... I expected you to be on your way to a Max Power Cruise.

Nice car love both your accents , great car man..you to are comedy and great to see classics still on the road ..

The wee motors class ma man 👌🏼good tae RS B road blasters still knocking about n on the roads in bonnie Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Absolute dream motor ay mine man well done pal

Good advert for LM Recovery

Always loved the escort turbos, a mates, dad had a series one took me out along our local back roads being a rally driver he new how to drive it properly also been in a s2 with a chip and exhaust very nice as think they had an lsd, this looks fun.

Great vid adam cant beat a red series 2

Always thought those are the best wheels on a MK4, together with Escort Cossie wheels which I had on mine. RS Turbo's are such fun cars.

I had 7 RS turbos S2’s over the years bought one for £700!!! Now they are strong money! But great cars and so much fun!!

Christ I miss my s2. Lovely motor.

Another cracking video adam👍

That things mint, perfect car

I LOVE this channel

Coming from the south. I’m struggling to keep up with what’s being said. 🤣 fantastic car. Great content.👍🏻

looks mint sounds unreal i had one loved i it rs turbo

Beautiful car 💓 well done mate 👏🏼

Awesome. Jamie did you have to modify the body shell to fit that engine?

Great video , we need a garage update fella

A friend used to have one exactly the same as this but had the 1.9cvh engine from America in it n was pushing over 300hp it was spin city any gear lol cool content as usual 😊

cracking car , right up there as a classic old sporty ford , fairly the rage now 👍

Cool car , I'm from that area mad seeing you doing a video here, be keeping a eye out it 🤩🤩🤩🤙🤙🤙

Adam your trade mark at the beginning of every video "Are ya ready like" 🤣👍🏻

I love everything about this!

Escort is mint.

Defo twins I'm from teesside and I have a Scottish father in law so I can understand what they are saying but the rest of the UK 🤣 another absolutely awesome vid👌

So much “aye” going on in this one lol fantastic video what a cracking car.

Spot on content Ad, great owner lovely car... side note hows the garage going lad?

Years back 250hp was wild in s2 rst, 370 can't feel safe surely,lol. Proper nice car mind, 100% with the owner on keeping it sleeper(ish) and OE looking.

Spot on. You must of taken the weather with u🤘🤣

Great vid, been to Andrew's a couple of times.

Beautiful car definitely forge it 👍🚀🇬🇧

I remember when you could pick a series 2 up for peanuts 15 years back... £500 would have got you a project.. MR2 mk1’s same.. mental prices now. Lovely car mate 👌

Love the Scott's! Four countries one nation.

Great vid, crackin motor.

Adam I don’t know how you can sit in the passenger seat in some of those cars lol, I’d be a nervous wreck. Love the vids mate.

Heard the sounds at 0:03 and immediately hit like

Absolutely beautiful car. 👌

lovely, i prefer with the oem fogs and wheels though. red is a great colour, my brother had 3 of these in the 80s

Is that Andrew Gallacher from Moorfield in Killie? AG Motorsport? Done a lot of engine and suspension work on my old blobeye. I stay 2 mins from there

Had one back in the day. Great car. Let’s not forget. Xr3i. 👍

That's nice fair play

Beautiful car fella

I had a 99 V Reg Fiesta Zetec Brand New when I as 18 stuck same alloys on it with RS Springs looked mint

Curious if the RU-vid algorithm can work out the language to demonetise or not?! Ha! Another great vid, really enjoy this channel, keep it up!

That car is beautiful man!

Niceness. 🔥❤️

When you put it in first and took it to the rev limiter, it would make a massive bang and flames would come out the exhaust, I don't know it this was only with magnex exhausts. People used to think a gun went off and would run for cover.

lovely car Adam 😍😁😁😁

Nice thing the interior was as good as you get..........really enjoy this format.......bit of a Bromance eh lol

Excellent car and vid. 👍

Sound guy, wouldn’t change a thing on it exactly how I’d have one👍

looks stunning

Got to wear matching outfits now 🤣🤣🤣
