What engine are you running and to what spec.

As said above the MTX74 box can be made to fit but on a Fiesta it requires some fairly heft surgery.

While we're on the issue of gearboxes, does any one know if the ratios differ much between the different model i.e a gearbox from a 1.1 compared to one from a 1.6?

The only box I would opt to swap for is the S2 Escort RS Turbo item as it has the LSD which will help you get the power down. Standard boxes aren't overly tough but a well rebuilt one should last you well.
