If you are going to ZETEC a Sierra do not use the 1.6 engine. They are fine in Fiestas, but not a heavy Sierra.

You can use the Sierra CVH sump and possibly the mounts too. With a 2ltr ZETEC unless you keep the mondeo PAS pump you will need to fit a waterpump from a 1.8.

Have a look at my website, link below.
