Usually a "complete" swap is never really complete. There are some exceptions, but always be prepared to replace and/or get other parts. Don't overlook the pre-swap maintenance: timing belt, water pump, spark plugs, etc.

The rear mount bracket is different...as far as I remember. If the engine is OBD2, you'll need to change the injector harness for your original one.

Also, the a/c won't fit your car w/o modifiying the lines... which I don't think I've seen anyone have done b4.

No, using a del sol a/c bracket of the same generation, from a dohc sol and a sohc compressor will get you a/c... you can retain the heater no matter what... just hook back the coolant lines to your heater core.

Also your radiator hoses won't fit... the dohc ones will be a bit too big to seal onto your radiator inlet/outlet, and your sohc ones are too small to fit the dohc motor...so you may have to get new hoses (top and bottom) or get Ghetto-ville on it's ***.
