would probably work out at around the same price if not cheaper to drop the 2 litre zetec engine in your car than it would be to buy a set of performance cams and vernier pullys for your car

Piper can reprofile you cams on an exchange basis think its about £200 I recently fitted some in a 1.8 seems to work well but idle's slightly rough.

Don't bother on the 1.6 Zetec it's a crap engine for extracting extra ponies from. Be better off just dropping a bigger engine in.
