What 2.0 duratec engine will drop into a mk1 escort?

I'd also like to use twin 40s/ 45s (don't know if that would make any difference)

Cheers

    The 2.0 from the Mondeo Mk3 should fit, seen a 2.3 from the Galaxy in a Mk1/2 before.

    Why the Duratec & not the Zetec?

    "Have you considered a 2.0 Zetec conversion?

    Easily acheive 200bhp with a few mods."

    You mentioned elsewhere. Just after different options and views.

    Bearing in mind I don not know a lot about ford engines at the moment.

    I'd like to be know what 2.0 engine (not 2.3 or 2.5) will reach my desired 200hp, fit in the mk1 and twin 40s are a must in my "build".

    All information on the engines is desired.

    I've just finished my '97 Honda civic ek9 project so vtec engines I understand and have learned a hell of a lot through that.

    So now I feel like I am at square 1 again and just need showing the ropes with the new dimension that I am stepping into.

    Thanks for your time
