i had a 1993 coupe but one of my siters friends stole it andwrecked it without damaging my motor......so i went and got a 1990 240 hatch and i know they come with single overhead cam so i was wonderin what all do i need to pull out of my coupes engine bay in order to be sucessful at the conversion?....are any special modifications to the wiring harness needed?

Please search before you ask.

You'll need the power steering lines and AC lines if you want to keep that.

DOHC motor, DOHC engine harness. Common sense.

I got a slick idea, how about looking at the two engines and deciding what's actually different.

There's a thought.

Did you tell us that? No. How about learning to fully discuss what you're planning before posting.

Again, just a thought.

You might as well have said "Hey guys, I'm installing an engine into a car, what do I need?"
