My son has done this to a mk2 fiesta he used Mk1 mondeo servo and master cylinder with wilwood calipers and Sierra xr4x4 discs. His run s on bike carbs with Nodiz ecu making the spark.
Ithink you need a water pump impeller that goes the other way.
Not sure about cutting the chassis leg as the mk2 is different

See it here

The discs have no wear just light rust , both discs and pads have only done a few hundred miles tops . I didn't do anything with the rears I'm always causious of over braking on the rear

I think there was something funny with clutches but it was maybe because he has a billet flywheel. I’ll ask him tonight.
