working linky
are you going to use a 'silver top' or the later 'black top' engine ?
silver top's have alloy sumps, black tops have tin ones
also I think some people use the CVH ones :?

If your gonna modify it you need a 2 litre.
If your just gonna fit it then you need an escort 1.8.
Or one of these scholar sump

well the bottom half of the focus ones are definatly steel (and I think the mondeo's are the same) - like this 1.8 focus:
btw - I've got the old one from this car spare, the bottom is a bit rotten (thats why I changed it) but if your cutting the bottom off anyway it
might be some use to someone..........

Lots of options.
but if your sierra comes with a cvh then that will fit your zetec along with starter and other bits.

Imho the scholar sump is well worth the cash, but only gives an extra 15mm or so on the escort sump.

Thats been done for a mk2 escort or the likes.
What you using the car for.
Budget road blaster use the escort sump.
Fast road / Track spend some money on the sump.
The cvh sump is not a direct bolt on. It needs four holes drilling and tapping into the bearing caps for the spreader plates.
It needs a hole cutting into the sump for dip stick.
The cvh sump will be atleast 16 years old.
And as standard its no shallower than the Escort sump.
