The engine is just the beginning; it is best to also have everything else
from the 2.1L. engine bay plus the computer with harness.  In fact, it is truly
best to have the donor van sitting beside the donee until the swap is
completed.  If you have to resort to tracking down any forgotten bits and pieces, it
becomes wasteful of both time and money.
