well you need the motor, tranny, afm , boost sensor if you have the t2 harness you could use that or the na harness. also you might want to swap out the rear diff and use the t2 diff in the na. or if you get the gold t2 get rid of your na and stick to the t2 .

Download the FSM. Read the section on engine removal for the NA then read the section on engine installation for the TII. If you stay within the same series it will be plug and play. If you mix the series then you'll have to do wiring (which I never did). I wouldn't bother with the wiring for the windows and other crap you don't need since your first priority is to get the car running. I'd go into details but I've posted this too many times and others have posted this info in the past also.

i would say its about as hard as typing a few words into the search box.....

theres a lot involved in the project. more than i can name, but if you have expirience with cars and have a lot of time to figure out all the problems you'll come across, you'll be fine
