you may want to just swap the 2.3L duratec. Ive never looked at one myself, but im assuming it doesnt have the same motor mount location, axles shafts, etc. SVT motors can be pretty pricey, unless you find one in a junkyard. Still something to consider.

a SVT swap is pointless, a 2.3 is more worthwhile if you wanna go N/A but a stock 2.0 can go 340+whp with a good turbo setup

Re: svt motor wanted
the 2.3 head can flow numbers that make the Zetec look stupid and and the regular 2.0 zetec can take more boost then the svt because it already has lower compression, and it has a lot more parts available

Re: svt motor wanted
ya... but i've never seen a stock 2.0 go 340+whp... don't think i ever will either... you gotta replace rod bolts for sure and no stock head or intake manifold or exhaust or tb or... list goes on and on... none of that can take that much whp period... never.

Re: svt motor wanted
like i said if you want N/A the 2.3 is worth the swap it can make over 330whp n/a, if you want turbo its cheaper to stay w/ the stock 2.0 zetec maxes about 330 crank.
and i dunno any i4 thst will go over 340whp stock

Re: svt motor wanted
edit: that 600 whp # is straight from the webmaster at DSM tuners. i also know a guy who has his GS-X at 500+ hp on stock internals.... w/o his nitrous shot... that guys car is still running too. no rod or piston swap or engine rebuild... hard to argue w/ low 10's you know.
