Default ST 170 to Zetec Flywheel?

Hi, my clutch has started to slip this week and i'm wondering if i buy a solid flywheel from a 2.0 or 1.8 zectec, will it fit using a st170 clutch?

Thanks

Not sure it's such a wise idea now I've been resarching it. Seems the Zetec ones almost fit but not quite. No one seems to have bitten the bullet and tried it as far as I can see. It's obviously safer to buy a conversion kit from these expensive places. If I could pick up a Zetec one for next to nothing I'd like to see how similar it is and if it would just need drilling or something. But an expensive experiment

Has anyone simply fitted a Zetec flywheel complete with a Zetec clutch to an st before? Surely it would simply bolt right on? Thrust bearing position will always remain central so can't see there being a problem
