On the more technical side.
I hope/assume youve at the very least replaced the 1.2i head with a 1.2/1.3 item... if not then a much better 1.4/1.6 MPI head.
As for the alternator. look on www.tuning.co.uk for the alternator lowering braket, then you need the longer adjuster which i belive came off a 2.0 8V engine. you also need a longer alt belt.
again as for your 100bhp hopes.... hmmmm depends on the head, cam and setup but ill be impressed if my engine gets 100bhp and thats a 1200 with 1.6 valves cut into the head with porting to suit, Uber high Compresison ratio, 303degree solid profile cam, T40's and the 1400 ign setup... id guess youll do about 85-90 on an accurate dyno (again depending on the head)
