It's a standard Mk1 Escort diff, and for piece of mind and ease of changing centres, I would at least be swapping it for an English type found in Mk2 Escorts.

You may want to check the new tarmac rally regs, I don't think you can run a Zetec in an Escort.

Hey nice project. Have fun with that. What a shocker under the cage mount.. scary.
Don't take my word for it, but I would have thought a complete Mk2 diff would go straight in.

dont use that as a donor.... build it up as a support, trailer vehicle... matching colours even....
nothing would beat a mk1 rally car with a mk2 van support vehicle.
