Duratec from Pinto is straightforward having the exhaust on the same side, you can rework the header to fit.

You can use the type 9 but will need a bell housing which are not cheap.

Lowered sump which are not cheap.

But you can go with carbs, bike carbs or fuel injection either has been done.

I paid £275 for mine with 22k miles on it.

That's not cheap, you can get a whole car for far less with everything you need and sell on the parts to get the motor for nothing!

Lots of info on my swap here - http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=192871

Realistically a cheap ugrade will be £1k plus

I paid £120 for an engine with 80k on it.
