Err.... with all respect, I'd suspect you might wanna do a lot of reading then chap :) Plenty of info on the net and in the Haynes manual.

Digging around at a scrappies will help, too.

2.0L Zetec is 130bhp as standard which is the same as the 1.8 RS1800 engine. However it would have more torque and could be tuned further

It can also be turbo'd in the future ;)
