ya need to stich/seem weld the engine bay,(chassis rail/inner wing and inner wing to suspension turrets)most people get the harry hockley strengthening kit which you weld in and around the engine bay,some say its not need!up to you really! you don't need to cut anything,just use a big hammer and knock the chassis rail in, as for mounts, the cheapest way to do it is to use the valvers engine mount kits,only ?50. then you need drive shafts. Or buy an expensive kit thats got everything.
