The only difference is between the shells, if you get a 16v or a 12v motor to start with then you need to get another chassis mount for the LET or XE.
Power steering is easy, you can install electric power steering which requires a different steering column. Or you can get the normal power steering which means a different rack, pump, mount, pipes etc.

The 16v and 12v are the same chassis, it's the 8v which is different. If you already have power steering then all you need is the pump from the LET or XE and the PAS mount as well.

If you buy the proper mounts, no welding
