RS2000 16v starter motor for a Type 9
A friend of mine is trying to fit an RS2000 engine out of a FWD escort to a Type 9 and is now stuck trying to find a starter that will fit.
From what I can find on the internot the 8v Sierra DOHC is a similar block but I think they only came strapped to an MT75.
Does anyone know of a starter that will fit the 16v flywheel and a Type 9.
Cheers
Paul

Ive heard of people using an 1800 Zetec from an Escort with type 9 and CVH starter before. Im no expert so hopefully someone will be able to clarify.

it is the same block as the sierra dohc,,dont know if the starter from dohc would fit,,,the flywheel on the sierra dohc was a huge heavy thing,,I
would have thought the rs 2000 one would have been lighter,maybe someone on here knows more,,,,
I am sure someone here has got that engine fitted,remember reading a post..
might be an idea to search posts..

I have fitted the RS 2000 16v engine to a MT 75.
And i used the starter from a DOHC sierra 8 v engine.
The flywheel is lighter then the DOHC 8 v, but the starter ring is the same.
Sorry I can not help about the type 9
