easy there killer it was just a question.
I am very mechanically inclined and wouldnt do this swap on my own.
To do a six bolt swap you need a 1g cas the harness for the 1g cas, You need to fab your motor mount by the timing belt so it can fit around the water pump, of course you will need a complete bottom end with the flywheel. There is also the issue with what head you are going to use If you keep the 2g you might have the random misfire. But if you go with a 1g you'll have to get a 1st gen water pipe and housing too along with the intake manifold.
Im sure all this info is on the web somewhere just dont remember all the dsm sites off the top of my head.
HAVE FUN!!!

i dont think the 2g head bolt holes fit with the 1g block. could be wrong though.
