Default Mk4 xr3i - Puma conversion

Hi , I have got a mk 4 xr3i with a knackered engine and I have a puma 1.7 (whole car). My mate has a garage and will do the engine swap for me - but he has limited time and space in his workshop, therefore wants to do the job quickly to get it done and out ! Does anyone know what other parts I will need to source to complete the conversion, so I can get everything together from the start ! All help much appreciated!
Cheers Grant

I love a 3i but I doubt the puma will be a bolt in swap.

Lots of work on the electrics but anything is possible.
