Much more information is needed. Is it 16V. Year of engines, and car.

Sorry..........I missed the DOHC bit, it could have been an 8 valve 2 litre. The injection is different, but with work the 2 litre head goes on the 2.3 engine, so I guess the whole 2 litre engine will go into the 2.3 without too much hassle. There are those on here that know much more than me! ;)
