No replies yet....I'll start then.

Your engine isn't a Duratec, 1998 will be pre Zetec too, probably an Endura unit as fitted to KA's etc.

That engine is based on the good old Crossflow but doesn't share many parts so tuning isn't simple.

The good news is the MT75 shares the same bellhousing bolt pattern but I'm not sure what clutch you need.

Well that's where my 'expertise' ends, hopefully someone else may be along shortly....good luck with your project.
