depends m8ty whom fits the engine for ya.. try courtney regal or any vauxhall tuning specialists.. expect to pay from £2500 with everything...
but definately get it fitted from someone reputable and you have seen their work...
if u decide to DIY:
stuff needed... engine(redtop) and all ancillaries, engne mounts.. driveshafts, uprated fuel systm.. uprated suspension f ya want.. uprated brakes (preferred), other bits and bobs..
but definately worth it, without a doubt..

if your doing the conversion in a gsi model then you dont need to change the fuel system.
