Will 1800 zetec gearbox fit 1600 CVH?

Good Morning.
Will a gearbox from a 1800 mk5 Zetec Escort fit onto Mk4 Escort XR3i 1600 EFI engine?
Do I need to make any mods and what will the gear ratios be like, will I notice any major difference?
Thanks

The starter motor mounting on the zetec is round the back of the gearbox as apposed to the front on the CVH box, so no it wont fit mate.
