Forgive me being a dope, again, is that how much has to be taken out for a Zetec to fit or is something bigger going in?

Currently in love with Starbuck (new series)
I think it's 2" but I'm not 100%. Some people have fitted them without doign this but i think it can be hard work.
All depends on whose sump you are using, Dunnel and Raceline sumps require the mod, but Retrofords one dosn't
And there's more....
