My focus just dropped a valve seat tonight and I was wondering if you could put a zetec from a escort into a focus?

The Zetec in the ZX2 has a VCT on the cam, also the lower engine crankcase will not mate up to the Focus transmission. I see you are in pa. I have a Focus Zetec out of a 01 Zx3 if you need a good low mileage Zetec engine and need some conversion parts. I also have SPI heads that have improved valve seats that prevent dropped seats.

alright thank you. I wanted to do the zetec swap but i might just put another SPI engine in it for now because I need my car as soon as possible lol. How much do the heads with the fixed valve seats cost?
