Default Fiesta engine conversion

Firstly apologies if this has been asked already before.

I have a mk3 fiesta van with a 1600 cvh. I've been offered a mk3 mondeo with a 2.0 zetec engine in. The question is will it go in the fiesta? Ideally I'm wanting to put it in as it is, I don't want to start changing management or run carbs.

Do I require anything else......

Thanks in advance

Steve

Mk3 mondeo will be the Duratec. The zetec will be the model / trim spec.

Still a very good engine.

You DO need the engine management system from the Mondeo.
If you don't want to use that, then don't buy the engine.

You will be very much on your own with the electronics side of the conversion. It's pretty unusual to keep the oem injection due to the power restriction and the complexity.
It can be done and I could give you the info on a proper zetec but you will need to be very confident with auto electrics to to it.

I am just about to start a rwd st220 engine project on its own ecu but I have done dozens of other Ford's on oem injection.
