if your fitting a 2ltr 8v carb then im no idea - dont know they even exist?
as for the injection version, we found it dead easy, hardest part is wiring (took 15 mins) and also sourcing driveshafts.
take about a weekend all in all.
i presume you are on about a 1.8 8vgte?
Not straight forward as you might think but not too bad. the bottom end is same size as a 2L 16v. so you have the mount fun that comes with a valver.
drives are same as a valver too.
