Exclamation zetec se 1600 head

is it possible to use a head from another zetec like a 1800 or 2.0? as i know that the 1600 is very restrictive, thanks

It's the same rules for all engines.. (n/a).. throttle bodies.. port the head to flow what you need.. make sure the valve train can cope with it.. choose cams to give you what you want/need.. makesure the bottom end i strong enough.. blah blah.
