Just to add to this, when my 200 estate neded a new engine Ford supplied the lumop and it was fitted by Nationwide Autocentres. When I colelcted it I commented that it felt down on power and was told that it needed running in. When I got home and checked the engine codes Ford had supplied a standard ST24 (167bhp) lump. I had to go into the FOrd dealer and explain to them how to identify an ST200 engine from a ST24 lump. No-one in the dealership had got a clue as to what the diffrences were and even admitted they thought they were the same engine.

Goes to show how useless Ford's really are.
