It's unlikely to be a atrightforward drop in fit. but anythings possible. However, without more information from you no one can say for sure. What engine does the H reg Fiesta have? Valencia? CVH? And the M reg Fiesta engine?

Trust me, a Fiesta does not like 60hp, let alone 120ish that the turbo must kick out!

i have seen an old mk1 fiesta running a mk1 rst engine/box/turbo etc,that was in 1995.it sounded like it was trying to rip itself apart when the throttle was nailed,the car tried to go everywhere except straight ahead and the braking was crap but f-me did it fly!!(and without any help from spoilers or max power stickers!)i only saw the car once,it was owned by a breaker from the west drayton area.
