would this be an easy fit into a 1.2 8v?
what other things would need upgrading? brakes? exhaust? also how long would it take a complete novice to fit?

I have looked into this conversion and its very straight forward bolt in and drive, ideally have uprated shocks and springs(lowered one maybe?) brakes could be changed for 2.0 jobbies but not always nessary because the brakes on my sri as standard where mad, exhaust, all 8 valve exhausts are pretty much the same, but why not put on a performance system(dont quote me on that)
Me and my uncle looked into the conversion on my sri 8valve and we was looking at doing it over a weekend

£125.
Keep spending money on my old boot
Hardly ever use the thing but would save alot of money trying to get the 1.4 sri engine up on power.
Mines a sri so its got a mpi already so its just the loom and the 1.4 injectors, rad etc will all be ok.
