im not sure on sizes,but would of thought the rear axle ,and the front brakes and discs of a 2300 would be ok, if the v8 is going to be left standard ish, As for gearbox i thought a ford would be easier to fit ,if it staying manual??. I cant remember if the engine bay is bigger or smaller than a mk1 escort
