MK1...
I am doing the same swap right now and there are many items to consider but
as far as "must have" you will need to retain the passenger side 8v
engine mount for the 16v. As previously stated you will need to replace
the exhaust system . Others more knowledgeable than I can provide you with
other "must haves". Personally I plan to do the brake conversion. I am also
using the complete 16v harness to include the fuse box, not only
because it's better, but also because I don't want to do any looming of the
MK1 wiring harness.
