Walgamuth,

That's an old thread you dug up... Swap was done 2 years ago without major issues. I had the complete parts car so everything was available. The only snag was that I had to fabricate one custom engine mount and one bracket to hold the power steering fluid reservoir. Other than thatit was fairly straightforward. Also had to swap injection pumps. AC was pulled out as it is not essential in Quebec. I put about 20 hours into pulling both engines and installing the good one back in.
