There is a guy on fsoc thats seems to be very clued up on this conversion if i remember right he is just putting the finishing touches to a 2.3 4x4 using the parts you mention.
Try here http://forum.fordsierraclub.co.uk/vi...7b2bc8d326af67
I think its MARTY you need to speak to,He's a friendly chap and very helpful

Or even better speak to the 2 people he gets his information from: Stixy and TheCrust. Stixy has done the conversion with manual, auto, MK1, MK2 and many more combinations. He also uses Scorpio VIS systems, and has the PATS through the original setups.

TheCrust has done the conversion with 8V and also knows the limits of the RS2000 ECU mapping and what you need to overcome it.

Go www.fordsierraclub.co.uk

Select "forum" and access that way. Registration should be fairly easy. If you have troubles, let me know.
