You're probably better off getting the parts from a junker.. you can find them all over, and it doesn't need to be of the same Gen as yours. (The stuff fits, just not perfectly. Sometimes, there's a bolt hole missing, etc.)

Check FEOA.org, you'll find all the swap info there for Zetec and non-Zetec conversions, etc.

It'll also give you information about gear ratios which you wouldn't normally be able to use, if you were only going to swap from your own generation.
