So you built an entire "bullet-proof" engine for under a grand! (block, heads, crack, rods, pistons, valves, cams, etc, etc, etc)
Please let me know where you found all these exceptionally cheap parts. Heck let EVERY Zetec owner know I am sure they would all love to be building engines for under a grand.
Heck you can't even build a solid Duratec for much under $1200 and that uses stock rods & pistons. (though both have supported over 400 HP & 8k+ rpm so...)
