No, they for sure will NOT fit, the Escape only used the 3.0l DOHC Duratec engine, also 2.0l and 2.3l 4cyls

You need heads for the 3.0l OHV Vulcan engine, this was used in Rangers, Mazda B3000, and Taurus/Sables, but Taurus/Sables did use BOTH Vulcan and Duratec 3.0ls in some years so heads up

Heres a list
1986–1997 Ford Aerostar
1986–2007 Ford Taurus
1986–2005 Mercury Sable
1990–1992 Ford Probe
1991–2008 Ford Ranger
1992–1994 Ford Tempo
1992–1994 Mercury Topaz
1994–2007 Mazda B3000
1995–2000 Ford Windstar

Heads from any year can be used, but the 2004-2006 heads could have bad valve seats so avoid those years
