My cortina diff is a 3.71:1 think its from a 2 litre. If I'm not mistaken(correct me if I'm wrong), the cortina's diffs are 50mm wider than the escort's.not sure of the width.

cheers

Just been to the garage & measured my 1600 mk4; its 59 1/8" (1502mm) hub face to hub face, 3.89:1 ratio.

Autobooks manual says that the 2lt is 3.75:1
