Default Engine swap? HF to SI

I may be picking up a whole '90 SI engine/tranny swap for $200. Will it drop right into my '91 HF or will have to replace some stuff? Assume I get engine, tranny, & ecu. The SI engine has no distributor or engine harness. What about axels?

But if I do an EX/SI brake swap too then I'll be ok right?

will the hf axles work with the SI tranny?

Is this deal worth it? Figure it is pretty much a direct swap for 40 hp more.

the car already needs the axles replaced so I'm not concerned about that.
