jack
axle stands
engine hoist

I think you just unplug the current loom and replace it with the loom from the same car or model of engine you have
Personally wile the retop engine is out I would replace the head gasket and cam belt @ least.

nothing wrong with an f16, near enough as strong as an f20..
but the only one worth going for is the f16cr,
