Re: broke zx2
Not on the ZX2, it's non-interference. You should be fine.
I need to do mine too, looks like a pain, but with the old Escorts I used to take the upper mount apart and let the motor sag down, and it was not bad. Maybe that'll work on these too. I haven't really looked yet.

Re: broke zx2
Yeah it all has to come off, down to the sprocket. Do your self a favor and test run it before you put everything back together. Nothing worse than getting all done and finding out you clocked a cam wrong or something.
