Default Throttle body swap

I have a 1.4 zetec se and I would like to know if there is a difference in size between the 1.4 throttle body and the 1.6 or 1.7 throttle bodies. If so, would it be possible to swap one of the larger ones over? Is it a simple swap? Is it even worth doing? Thanks in advance people.

Why would you want a larger one anyway? I can almost guarantee it would lose you torque
