Default MK5 RS2000 (I4) engine in mk4 Escort?

Just saw the german Orion in Perf Ford, nice choice of engine!

Anyone got any idea how hard it would be to put this engine in mine? i think the CVH 5 spd box fits no prob so thats the cradle, driveshafts and starter sussed, I'm not sure about back engine mount, cooling system and wiring.

I'm guessing the wiring wouldnt be too hard - i've got the tank and loom from an EFi XR3i sitting as i was gonna do a Zetec conversion??
