John Vicker has a 200bhp Zetec on the Millwood site. I'm sure he'd be able to share some thoughts, though it is for sale, so expect positivity.

Scott,

I converted my '93 Supersprint to Zetec power, initially with carbs and then a year later to TBs. It runs circa 190bhp/167lbs/ft. Runs like an absolute dream, gets used for blats, touring and sprinting/hillcimbing. Smooth power delivery. More info here and here. Managed 10k miles to date and a vast improvement over the old x/flow.

It's not the lightest engine out there, in fact it may even be very slightly heavier than the x/flow. However, it's not a heavily stressed engine and hence should be pretty bullet-proof.
