If you go with 2.3 you will need a lowered WCXM and Grp4 Steering joint.
The 2.0 is shorter in the block by 12mm so you should be able to use the standard cross member. I don't know what Eurospeed is proposing for 2.0 Duratecs in Escorts.

Eurospeed has moved the engine forward with thier engine mounts which means that you do not have to move gearbox mounts this is excellent, their gearbox mounting bracket is excellent aswell, but you will have to have a remote oil filter as the standard one will not fit once the engine has been move forward slightly.

Other than, Eurospeed has worked hard to make it a piece of cake to install.
