Default '99 Ford escort 2.0 Dohc and Sohc interchangable?

my girlfriend has a 1999 Ford escort with a SOHC 2.0 . Seems the DOHC version is easier to find and cheaper. Any chance that the engines can be swapped without any modification to the car?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say it's highly unlikely.

i'd figure the only difference between the DOHC and the SOHC is the head. are the motor mounts and wiring harness different?
