Default EBII into EA

I have a '90 EA and am looking to put a manual transmission and engine from an EBII into my car?

Just wondering before I go through with it all, are there any problems with fitting this? I realise that the ECU and wiring loom would probably be different, but I can get access to the EBII ones too. Basically, just want to know if theres any problems I'm going to run into, or is it a pretty basic conversion (as basic as a conversion can be! :P)?

No problems with fitting an EBII box to an EA. The EBII manual will bolt straight in.

How about the engine and stuff? Would the wiring loom be any different between the 4 litre setup and the 3.9 litre setup? Just want to make sure theres nothing thats gonna stuff up in the swapover.
