fuel lines can stay, but you will need the MPi fuel pump. Dont forget the brakes, the solids on the 1.2 arent good enough at all.

Fuel pump- swap that
Wiring - Engine looms and ecus will just swap over, rip out 1.2 stuff and chuck in 1.4 stuff
Engine, box and driveshafts - swap engine and box, keep 1.2 shafts (saves farting about with removing driveshafts)
everything else will explain itself as you carry on, you will need the fuel pipe ends off the 1.4 though, they've got nuts on the collect to the fuel rail
