Default MK2 RS2000 engine conversion

Gday I was just wondering on prices of the Zetec and Duratec engines, how easily they are to fit and if they give a good engine sound (like the BDA)

I am looking to fit another engine into my escort (currently running 2ltr pinto with single carbs) and was wondering how difficult installing these new engines is
