If your going down the Zetec, its not a million miles away from what I've done. But you'll run into a few problems. Which 2ltr model are you going for?
First off your sump needs some substantial modifying to make it suitable for the ground clearance and RWD use.
Your thermostat and water rail needs modifying or its going to impact on the bulkhead.
The alternator off the donor engine will be fine, but you'll need to make new mounts and probably replace the belt as you'll want to ditch everything off the ancillary belt (PAS, ABS, Aircon etc).
Starter motor should be compatible for your bellhousing. So whatever the gearbox originally came off. Mine is off a 1.8cvh for a Type 9. You'll prolly want a starter off a DOHC if your using a MT75.
ECU, Well I assume your going fuel injection? Sticking with the original manifolds and throttle body? So grab the loom off a pre-pats engine and it will fire up straight away. Thats it. Super easy.
Now how old is your engine going to be? Because you'll need to consider emissions if its after '94. So you'll also need all the catalytic converter guff.
