I've heard of xe pistons being used in a zetec when making it a turbo. you have to bore the zetec block out to the xe piston size (86mm),
apparantly the deck height and compression ratio of the xe piston is near enough what you want to make a zetec turbo charged and a second hand set of
xe pistons is a cheapr route even with a rebore than purpose made zetec turbo pistons. Also makes the zetec 2.1ish iirc.
..all second hand info but a search will prob show more first hand info. Also search on zvh turbo, zetec block with cvh (rs turbo) head.
