Thinking of putting this OEM card into the rackintosh, other than the slightly different FSB speeds (133->167) is there anything else I should be watching out for? As its from the same base unit (a MDD) I am thinking it should mount onto the same processor mounts that the 1GHz processor uses - is this likely?

should work fine but the dual 1.25 will only run at 1ghz with your 133 bus. I have a dual 867 and its quite snappy to me so a dual 1ghz is big time pimpin'

Yeah I figure as much, I might get round to doing the FSB hack once I have the tools, but a DP 1GHZ should be fine for now I'm thinking.
