if you look on the club site you will see an article that i did some time ago. i used an escort servo and m/c but they look similar to the mondeo ones(bet if you looked on microcat they probably are).the setup works well even with xr4x4 front calipers(same as mondeo and cougar v6) and peugeot rears , oh and no G valves on the coupe.
