What parts from a 1.4 Sri would i need to convert a 1.2 8v carb?

So far this is what i reckon:

-lump + loom
-ecu + loom
- fuel pump + lines (tank)
- gearbox?

anything else anyone can suggest?

Also is this a difficult conversion?

an f10 will fit onto an sri, but id use an f13 anwyays!

best changing the whole loom if possible, will be a nightmare trying to integrate the engine loom into what you have already. ive still got to remove my sri engine loom+ecu, looks like a nightmare so iv been putting it off for ages!!
