Plenty of options to fit Zetec and Duratec into Escorts. Not sure of the engineering requirements in your state but theres been plenty converted and licensed before so it is possible.
These guys have a good range for example but there are lots of others doing conversion parts in the UK so shop around. https://www.retroford.co.uk/

The conversions are a viable option when you think to build a pinto with comparative power will cost upwards of 10k unless you can do alot of the work yourself. The conversion kits may be a bit of an outlay to start with, say 7k without shopping around but the engines themselves are a cheap as chips at wreckers, say $1000 to $1500 and easy enough to replace if they do go pop.
