Post subject:  G16b conversion questions/advice

Hey guys i have a few queries regarding a g16b-sierra converson i am about to start. I know there are countless threads on here about this subject but all the info seems to get diluted. So here goes...
I am looking at buying a 2000 model baleno with the manual box.
What i would like to know is.

Will my extractors from my 8v 1.6 fit this engine ?
In relation to the attched picture, what is the deal with these cooling hoses/ protrusion from the block ? will this interfere with the firewall ?
What fuel pressure is required ? i was looking at runnign a 2l external surge tank with an inline lo pressure pump to it then an inline hi press pump to the motor. Will this setup work ? will i need a fuel pressure regulator ?
Do the sierra cooling hoses work ?

Anything else trouble wise you think is worth mentioning please do.
Thanks heaps in advance
Jonny

So will the 16v vitara extractors work ?
Can anything be done about these pesky cooling hoses on the back of the motor ?
so i can run any external efi pump ?
and what parts are required to plumb the 1.6's cooling system into the radiator ?
cheers

so i can run any external efi pump ? YES. STICK WITH SOMETHING COMMON. THAT WAY SPARES ARE EASIER TO COME BY. VL COMMODORE PUMP IS A POPULAR CHOICE
and what parts are required to plumb the 1.6's cooling system into the radiator ? WHAT CONDITION IS YOUR RADIATOR IN?
cheers

so i can run any external efi pump ? yep you can or if you are getting the whole car use the baleno swimmer
and what parts are required to plumb the 1.6's cooling system into the radiator ? i cant answer that my rads on the back and we used 10 bar oil suction water hose
cheers
