For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.not 100% certain but i believe the Puma uses a Zetec engine and the KA a duratec engine.... i THINK that the inlet/outlet manifolds are reversed in these engines and would cause a huge headache.
i also seem to recall the duratec is a far smaller lump then the zetec so you would (if it could be fitted) be looking at custom made engine mounts etc.
however i am happy to be proved wrong in this instance :)
