Snapshot M8 is the last build with support for JB bootloader. All nightlies from July 1st are supporting KK bootloader.
You can easily flash jb4.1.2 with rsd-lite. Using twrp you're then able to install cm m8.

First and Foremost, I would like to know if I can downgrade from 4.4.2 bootloader to 4.3. If that is possible can some one give me the link to
a stock 4.3 Rom which has seperate files for boot loader, modem,CSC etc. Thanks.

If you flash the stock 4.4.2 stock rom then you can no longer downgrade your phone to 4.3 or .4.2.2 . have a nice day.

Thats because of the boot-loader right, correct me if I'm wrong. So theoretically if we flash a JB compatible boot-loader we can downgrade to JB ROM. That's what I am thinking.
It is not possible to install an older bootloader

Question ..i see alot of kit kat roms..what's the most stable 4.4 kit kat ROM ?
CyanogenMod 11 is pretty stable. I flash the nightly's once or twice a month, and I've never had a problem. Battery life is decent and everything seems to work.

For me PAC-rom is very very stable. Battery life better than in CM11, Carbon, Gummy. And PAC-rom is more customizable than every ROM i've tryed for RAZR M.

You can flash custom ROM on your locked bootloader phone with SafeStrap recovery. Some people says that perfomance wouldn't be like if you flash it with normal custom recovery(i.e. CWM or TWRP), but i never noticed that. Of course, you need to root your phone to use SS recovery.

But none of the newer custom ROMs (Android 4.2+) work with SafeStrap, mind you.

Andy is correct, you can't flash just any ROM with SS. In fact, there are very few SS compatible ROMs out there right now. When or if they release the 4.4 OTA, I'm pretty sure there will a plethora of stock and aftermarket ROMs made available for SS.

You are getting an error (This package is for devices with 4.4 bootloader) because that build needs the KK bootloader to install. You have to update to stock KitKat to get the new bootloader.

I think that is the KK compatible CWM.
I would get rid of CWM and use the TWRP that is compatible with KK. There's been nothing but issues with that version of CWM.

Razr M jelly bean bootloader verion of CM

your device has the jellybean bootloader and needs the jellybean bootloader ver of CM.
As a result, many devices supported under the moto_msm8960 are still using Jellybean bootloaders, and could not update to the latest CM 11 builds. To rectify this issue, we have decided to split the moto_msm8960 family into Kitkat (4.4) bootloader and and Jellybean bootloader releases. A new moto_msm8960_jbbl (Jellybean bootloader) variant has been created in CM sources to account for those devices that have not (and may not) see a proper 4.4 release from Moto.

So I went to flash the new version of CM12 onto my Razr M xt905. During the flash I got an error straight away "This package is for devices with 4.4 bootloader". So now I can't upgrade to 5.0.. My question is how do I update my boot loader to 4.4?

Sorry but I am unable to find a stock rom for the XT905 only the XT907. Would you be able to direct me to the correct alternative rom or any other solution.

I see that you have blisspop (Sent from my RAZR M on BlissPop Lollipop 5.0.2 from Tapatalk) installed which I might try however is this the correct thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr-m/development/rom-blissstalk-team-bliss-t2917423
I can see that there is a DL link for "MOTO_MSM8960 (JBBL)" which I have 2 questions for:
1) Is this Andriod 5.0?
2) Is it compatible for the XT905?
EDIT: I installed it however once I boot into the OS I get several errors such as 'Unfortunately setup wizard has stopped"

That is BlissStalk, not BlissPop. BlissPop is on droidrzr.com. yes it's 5.0 (as stated in my signature) and it should work since your on a moto msm device.
Edit: not sure about compatibility since the xt905 uses a different radio I believe since it's Australian. Ask the dev

Any fix for this?
Even I have an XT905, and from what i have searched on the net, an official kitkat update hasnt come for xt905.
What can be done to get the latest boot files, so that I can flash the latest custom roms, almost all are based out on KITKAT
You would need a KitKat compatible modem for the XT905. And as you already mentioned, it's not available yet.
But it's still possible to use XT907 ROMs for the JB bootloader.
I am using BlissPop on XT905. You just need to download the "jbbl" version. The first boot takes some time so be patient.
It is buttery smooth and battery life is awesome.
Radio is on separate partition and is not flashed by BlissPop
I never used stock KK, so my bootloader is JB booloader (or not)? I want flash worship based 20h, and I'd like to know if this rom needs a KK bootloader or with JB bootloader, works ??

I think it will work on booth but is best to ask on Rom threat!

Kk ROMs needs KK firmware..
Boot loader is not important, but consider upgrading from time to time for compatabi lity purposes.
