im a little late on this topic, but i have looked a lot into the swap in the past.
the 2.0 and the 2.3 are essentially the exact same heads. the only difference between the two is that the 2.3 uses the same intake induction system style as the spec v with th butterflies opening up to accommodate more air coming in. the deck height of the 2.3 block is slightly higher to give it the stroke length.
in the end, doing a head swap will do virtually nothing for you as the heads are the same. if a 2.3l swap is something you like, get a 2.3l out of a fusion. VVT!! u can have maddd vtak yo! lol
o and as for the cams in the 2.3l.....
they have the same lift and duration on both intake and exhaust as the 2.0l
theres some fun facts for u guys
