Altough, I have been tempted to use the 2.3 bottom end with the 2.0 head, heard they make a decent amount of power N/A.
loads of people reckon the i4 weighs shit loads more than the zetec, granted it is heavier but not enough to worry,
the i4 has 20bhp over a standard zetecs so i would say thats quite abit,
i say fit it, the i4 is a good strong engine and there is loads of development going on with these engines right now.
from low boost turbo conversions to big bhp turbos,
there are also so naughty n/a powered ones in the making.
