Well j would decide on what engine first then go from there c20 xe will need shafts mounts and adapters and the drivers side leg will need modding for there alternator then there is the age old do I stitch it put strength kit in la la la la but stick to small block so x16 or even 18 and it's a lot simpler near bolt in job with Normal nova parts

you wont need cavalier outers for a start.
cav mk2 1.6 inner cvs but ONLY if you have 22splined inner shafts.Contrary to popular belief not all gte/gsi had them.
