Default Capri Convertible 1990

I have just obtained my FIRST FORD. Took a long time to get there, however the Ford that I now have is a Capri Convertible 1990
"Why!!" do I hear you ask? Well I believe that they are misjudged and misunderstood and probably nearly all gone from the face of the earth and they don't deserve that sort of treatment.
So I have decided to save one.
However it has done a head gasket or similar and has NO compression and is in need of a heart transplant.
What I need to accomplish this amazing feat is information on what Ford motor can I mate up to the single cam 1600 manual gearbox. I would have to be a twin cam at least and probably a lot younger than 1990. Perhaps a late model Laser or Mondeo or similar.
Can any body assist with suggestions or information??

Regards, Paul
