Default who knows the ZVH

a friend of mine has asked me to do a cam kit and valve guides for him on his 1.8ZVH escort cab, was just wondering, is the piper 285 still ok for this egine and also what head gasket is it likey to use, I assume its the zetec one due to the bore size but will it be a special one? i.e. thicker or anything also what kind of tourque settings? zetec or cvh? Thanks in advance, any other zvh info and tuning ino would be handy, I know my way round with a spanner but never been involved with zvh before.
