if all you're doing is dropping the engine in, I doubt you'll find an engineer who'll pass it as roadworthy. They'd want suspension and brakes as a minimum I would imagine, otherwise you have a 150kw bathtub with soap for brakes 
I think (or assum rather) that the siggy came with a 4-cyl from the factory. If this is the case, the 1g would be your best bet. 7m would also by a nice choice, but that'll make it even more front heavy, and you'll have mor clearance issues for things like radiators, fans, and intercoolers.
Other than that, wiring is always a bit of a pain if you dont know what you're doing, and remember high pressure fuel hoses!!
other issues will be gearbox-tailshaft issues, you'll probably need to get someone to make up a custom tailshaft for you.
the gbox will also need some mounts made for it. And can the sigma diff take that power? if not, budget for a diff upgrade too
