if using the C20XE, you will need to use 2 ECU's, like Sethion says, the engine loom on the C is built into the rest of the wiring loom, electrics in it are mad as everything is electric, you dont even have a throttle cable in the C, so you'd need to sort something up in that respect also.
Not too sure on engine mounts and all yet, think you may have to get them made up yourself
big job, hardest part would be wiring it all up
if your brave & have mega £££'s go for it, but expect costs to be 2-3 times more than what it costs to do a B!

I've heard people saying they can get it done or £3500 but I didn't think so!

Mathijssen Technics have done this to a C, but they must still be working on a conversion kit, as its not listed yet...
BTW this cost them £10k to do, and that was even before they tuned the engine!

i know mines a B but a lot of the problems i came across were wiring ones, the fitting of the engine was quite easy, the wiring was a bit of a barsteward
if your willing to experiment, then go for it, and post pics of your progress
