Looking for help on motor swap for 1987 Hyundai Excel??

I just bought a 5 spd 1987 Hyudai Excel hatchback with the FULL intention of installing the 1gen 4G63 turbo powerplant. The car doesnt even have a motor in it right now. What kind of complications am I looking at to do this. I have been told the motor was virtually a bolt in motor. Please help me out here. Thanks,
Michael

31 views and no love? Guys I have been looking and looking and basically what I have to find out is where the front and rear motor mounts are? That and if anyone can tell me where a good read on someone who did it and tells about what they encountered, that would be great too.

mate im intending on doing the same thing but i've already got a TRUST T-71 Ball Bearing turbo.. i was wondering if the 4G63 will be able to handle that type of turbo with all stock internal's and all stock engine mods.

Who would be able to list the rest of the mods i should do to exceed well over 500hp?
