If you let me have e-mail address I can mail you the article I wrote that describes the whole procedure. You should also check out Mark Stewart's excellent site at
http://www.fiestaprojects.com/
From Si to 2.0 all you need is a Mondeo 2.0 engine, ideally a Zetec E which is the one that says DOHC on the cam cover. Zetec R can also be done but not quite so simple a project. You will also need a number of bits off your current Si engine--water pump, sump, dipstick, inlet manifold etc.
There are no suspension mods and the Si box bolts straight on.
Go for it the difference is welllllllll worth the effort. My swap took me about 4 days all in BTW and that was mostly on my own.
Expect to pay around £400 for a good Mondeo unit from a scrappie
