Um no and no...
Need a VTS lump and head (2 cams)
with a box that can handle the power (S/pug box)
Other stuff like suspension and brakes will need to be looked at aswell mate.

All saxo gear boxes are interchangeable, but the VT* models have a stronger diff.
The engine blocks are basically the same, but enough little things make it unfeasable to fit a twin cam head to a single cam block! for example vts pistons are pocketed to give clearance to the valves!

The head is where power output is decided, in numerous ways..Inlet, cam, gas flow etc all play a part in an engine's overall power output..
The 1400 silvertop is a good little engine..A different cam, along with some headwork, breathing mods and remap will leave you with over 100bhp which is plenty..
