No it won't bud and even if it did the ratios would be ****...there bad enough beyond 3rd in the 1.4 as it is. At least as far as I know that's the case

Sorry missed the second part of the question...The ECU will need to be changed as it's there's not vtec to start with in a 1.4 but as well as that mounts, the loom if you want to make it easier etc.

Here's a link gives a good overview of each

The radiator will work, you just will need to use different clamps on the radiator side.

You will also need, b series axles, shift linkage.

You can use your orginal harness if, you add all the proper wires... depending on the ecu you get you may need to get a jumper harness as well.
