Default full zetec conversion into mk3 carb escort

first off will i need an injection tank and fuel pump ect (like rst)

how hard is the loom. and will the zetec clutch and flywheel fit my rs1600i gearbox.

what other bits would be needed ect as i have a complete mk5 xr3i 130ps

and thinking of putting the lot in, but would my twin dcnfs fit and work or do you need these 5port progressive carbs everyones on about.

cheers
