Buying a 02 motor to put into a 96 could use some help..

[Makalani_96GT]

Ok I was about to buy a PI kit when I on a hunch called my not so local junkyard and he has a 2002 for about the same price so I'm going to go get it tomorrow....
Here's my forseealbe problems:
1. Returnless fuel system -Can I just put my fuel lines from the 96 on the intake and use the whole fuel system I have now?
2. Coil-on-plug -The new motor will not have a place for my coil packs so I will have to fab a bracket for them correct?
3. Transmission -Will my T-45 bellhousing bolt up to the 02 motor.
4. EEC-V -As you can tell I want to use my current engine harness so will that work?
5. Prochamber -I just put a Prochamber in do you think I will have any fitment issues with this motor?

That about all I can think of right now am I forgetting anything? Please help guys and girls! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1) Reuse your current fuel rails. They will bolt up fine to the new engine.
2) Reuse the coil packs. They should bolt right up also.
3) As long as it has the correct bolt flywheel, this should bolt up fine as well.
4)Your entire harness will work except for the second temp sensor. You just have to tap the intake like on a headswap and everythine else is fine.
5) I'm not 100% sure, but I would think it will bolt up fine. It will probably be a trial and error type thing here.

Good luck. It should be easier than the headswap. Let us know how it turns out.
