You could do it. Itll take the engine mount brackets, the radiator, the computer, new flywheel, new starter. I think that's it. Maybe I left something out.

You also need the entire underhood engine harness.

There's the main plug on the firewall with a bolt in it. Pull out the bolt and take the whole underhood harness. There are 2 halves of the plug, I'm pretty sure one half engine and the other everything else (ie. lights, horn etc). You can sort through it to make sure, but you should only need the one half.
