Finishing the SVT Engine Swap in my Ford Escort

I managed to melt a forged piston in my previous Zetec engine, so it was time for a new one. This time I'm going with a Ford Focus SVT engine. This SVT engine has forged pistons with slightly higher compression, and a smoother flowing head. In the last episode, we converted everything over for fit the escort chassis. However we ran into a few setbacks that meant we couldn't finish the engine in time for the next track day. In this episode, we finally finish the swap!
