Default I4 into mk4 Escort?

Anyone had any experiences putting an I4 engine from a mk5 RS2000 into something else? We bought a rotten RS for the engine for our mk4 track car but not got a lot of experience with this engine....

I'm sure I've read you can use a cvh gearbox on it - think we need to change flywheel and clutch? Any ideas which one to use?

Other thing is rear engine mount - can you use a modded cvh one? And any idea if bonnet will close with the timing chain cover?

Any advice or links would be much appreciated

rs2000 had a left in the bonnet to miss the cambelt cover
