It's fairly straight forward, they bolt together on most of the holes but you will need to get the correct starter, clutch and thrust bearing.

And need to put a spigot bear in in the zetec crank shaft end, stock ford Sierra part.
I posted some info on this thread, I think it tells you what clutch, starter and spigot bearing to use.

Yep, as said fairly easy to do.
I've posted details on my build blog for a 2.0ltr zetec which is much the same.

You can also get a pinto style Zetec flywheel that will take your pinto clutch and starter ect. Just add a spigot bearing.
