Its not THAT hard if your a good mechanic. Welding up the engine bay is a good idea to strengthen it. Id budget £500-£700 for fitting the engine yourself plus the cost of the engine and gearbox.

The wiring isnt difficult to someone with a basic knowledge of electrics either, having said that if your no good with electronics, I would find someone who is to wire it up for you
