There is an engine conversion FAQ in the FAQ section of this site. Funnily enough.

Was just wanting a bit of advice on upgrading to a x16xe from an x12xe. Are the driveshafts the same on these two engines and engine and gearbox mounts? Or will i need these from the donor car? Also is there anything else that i will need apart from loom and manifolds. Herard somethhind about a transponder key? Any advice appreciated. Thanks
