you will need engine mounts from a zetec e engined fiesta or custom mounts bro
also id advise changing brakes as the 1.1 stoppers will be crap with the gti engine in
and someone must know about the pats edis problem you may/will encounter with the ecu and looms etc
i am afraid...... do not

I'm doing this myself atm too, heres a list of parts you will need

fiesta si 1.6 engine mount

gearbox with ratios to suit as the 1.1 box will be crap on fuel

fiesta si engine loom

fiesta si full exhaust system

ecu for a 1.8, the gti ecu is a 'SLUG' ecu with internal edis and internal pats, a way to get around the pats is to either have the escort gti key fixed to the pats pick up ring and pluged into the ecu/wiring loom still, or look for a mk3.5 rs1800 ecu which you will have to pay a premium for

fiest si fuel tank with inbuilt pump

fuel lines

1.8 maf sensor

1.8 injectors with inlet manifold

1.8 throttle body

as for brakes and suspension, if your set on keeping your 13" revolutions you will need a minimum of fiesta si brake with the vented discs and some green stuff pads or if you can afford it, drilled and grooved discs, rs turbo brakes will also fit and be enough to stop a 1.8

i'd also look at better suspension from the likes of the si also

The si ecu (GURU) would work enough to get the car running, but would be terrible to drive as the fueling and timing wouldn't be right, escort gti ecu (SLUG) with the key and transponder ring or mk3.5 rs1800 ecu is what you need (CULT)
