there isnt much info because very few people would bother with a low powered engine swap such as to a 2.0 NA zetec E over a 1.7 zetec SE. Pound for pound your money is better spent tuning the 1.7 engine and keeping the front end light compared to the extra weight of a Zetec E.
however a zetec turbo is a different proposition as the power/torque far outweighs the difficulties.

he fitted a 2.0 duratec.
