Default Sleeper necessities

Got a 1.1 with a blown engine, and a vts engine in the shed.

What are the necessities i need to change?

Is it just a straight swap?

Do i need a different gearbox?

Thanks

1.1 need the mount welded into position more hassle than it worth..

otherwise i would replace front struts and maybe beam. Suspension and driveshafts

only change front struts if it a 1.1 (3 stud)

What mount? Much does this cost?

Does it defo have to be done?

Might not bother then, got the car for free, would be worth doing tbh.
