Default Mk2 Xr2 turbo transplant project help needed!!

Ive just bought my mates Series 2 RS Turbo, and ive literally got access to everything, Im buying it because its got a fantastic CVH power engineering engine, CTS STage 2 box with Quaiffe Torque biasing Diff, Organic clutch, and some fantastic brakes and obviously the whole loom, ecu etc. and every ancillirie

Im about to go on a hunt for the tidest mk2 xr2 i can lay my hands on, but i was just wondernig weather the good folks of passion ford would be able to give a bit of advise and anser a few queeries.

Firstly, what drive shafts to use? will escort ones fit? are the xr2 ones good enough?

Secondly, what fuel tank to use? how many extra fuel lines have to be run? and what sort of fuel pump is best to use?

Whats the best radiator to use? will a FRST one fit quite easily?

There my main worries really, oh and between the rad and the engine is there enough room for the t3 manifold? or wud it be best to swope to a fessy one?

Id be really greatful of any help with this cheers
