It works just fine. Take the whole power steering / A/C bracket off the side of the N/A engine, and bolt it to the TII engine. You can just zip tie the A/C compressor off the side of the bay while you're doing the entire engine swap, then reattach it once the TII engine w/ NA bracket & P/S is dropped in. It's also possible to keep the P/S pump & bracket that the TII engine may already have, but I'd would suggest keeping the N/A pump if it is known to be functional. Changing a leaky P/S pump out is no fun.
