Sell yours, buy a 1.4 16v. Far easier.

You can pick up Sri's pretty cheap if you look, ALOT less than a engine conversion.

for the sake of a 1.4 mate, and if yours is tidy you could easily sell yours and get i tidy sport or sri.....
but if you would like i project then your going to have to change loom, breaks ect and you will need chip and key from the engine you buy, also will need the 1.4 mounts and i also think shafts
