if your going for an engine conversion go for a 2ltr for what its worth it would be better to sell your car and get a 1.4 or 1.6 sport as itll have all the higher spec bits in it etc! i went for a 1.6 conversion in my 1.4 tuned it a bit but regret it sometimes.....

sell your car then and buy a 1.4 sport, or kep saving and in 2 years you will have enough to insure and fit a decent rebuild 2ltr 16v, and have it done properly.

the sport (IMO) is better spec'd and looks a lot nicer than the others you listed.
