Shifters and FD

Think so. A x9 FD will work with a Shimano shifetr so why not the other way round. :P It's just the Rear derailleur that it wont...course i could be wrong.

Yes it will, just check if it needs a bottom pull or top pull derrailleur. I ride SRAM X-7 with a Deore F/D

Its only the RD thats a problem due to different ratios between Shimano & SRAM (The only thing still preventing me from switching to SRAM gripshifts)

Correct, the SRAM rear derrailleur works on a 1.1 ratio, the stir fry rear derrailleur runs a 1.2 ratio.
