Pretty sure the original diameter is 80mm mate, so a 10m over bore is out of the question im afraid. Better off with a 2litre zetec bottom end which i think has a bore of 86mm (off the top of my head).

Rob,

you could always go for geting a 2.0l cvh block from america imported that was used in the american ford focus, but thatll be costly
