Talking HELP! Fiesta engine conversion

Hi, im doing an engine conversion on my mk4 fiesta, i have bought a 1.6 engine from an escort and wanting to know if this will fit without too many mods, and if so should it be attempted by myself.

Thanks

If its a 1600 from a escort forget it, go for a 1.7 puma engine or buy 1 already converted.

It'll be a silvertop, sell it to a somebody with a boat as it makes a better anchor than it does an engine.
