new fuel pump i'm sure as its injecting into 4 rather than 3 cylinders, new CPU obviously for the same reason - get that from the donor car the 1.4 comes from.

not sure how much a 1.4 16v would be but i work on the basis any engine is £200-£500 depending on condition and the like (2.0 8v Redtop seem to ave £300) fitting would be £600+ i reckon but dont know of a price given most fit themselves in a weekend (or if competant 5hours i've heard!)

gearbox - not a clue, someone will be able to answer you. i belive the 12v and 1.2 16v use the same g/box and the 1.4 and 1.6 share the same one but dont quote me on it!
