That would depend on if the engine is an E99 or a 99.5. Transmission and body pretty much no problem, the issues come into play with the turbo intake tube and downpipe alignment. If it's a 99.5 it's plug and play except maybe for an intake air heater, which is not hard to work out.

What engine was in the 02 originally? Do you have the complete wiring harness including pcm? Does the pcm match the transmission in the 02?

Should be fine as long as the transmissions match. Can't run an automatic off of a PCM from a standard and vice versa

Should go right in. You can look at your spider and see if they are the same. Also the glow plug relay to see if they are the same. Other then that direct fit. Having the harness really helps, go for it. If it's and early motor it won't have the intake heater.

What Chet said. A pic of the top of each engine should tell the tale.
