i'm pretty sure the zetec bottom end bolts straight upto the b5 gearbox as used by the rst with limited slip
the zetecs in the mk5/mk6s used an i'mproved' b5 called the ib5 but obvio you won't get the limited slip and i'm pretty sure the mounts are slightly different.

I`ve been told i need 1.8 zetec 105 bhp flywheel and cvh clutch, is this correct? Because it uses an ib5 g-box? would a 1.6 zetec flywheel be the same?

Had a small problem wi the engine mount, ive modded the cvh bracket to fit the zetec block, but the rubber mount is fouling the oil pump, looked on a web site and they use a diff rubber mount part no.81AB6038AC, what car does this come on?
