Engine swap and such is much more costly then just trading in your car for a zetec powered 5 speed. You don't have much in yoru car that you can't take out and put in a zetec focus. Stereo comes out easy and as long as you have the factory deck then your set.
I might be aquiring a focus SE with a zetec and 5speed from a local inpound (love having friends who own towing/impound companies. The car was rear ended however my buddy says it can be fixed. If the car doesn't go in the auction he is gonna give it to me for the cost of scrap metal ($120). IF I get the car I am gonna have the rear end fixed and look into boosting the car either turbo or supercharger. Probably end up selling my current sedan to some numbnutted kid who digs the spinners.
