Drop in a 3400 while your at it. $400 more(motor mount), but also a 50whp increase and better fuel mielage ;)

Drop a 3.1L in there.. The transmission you have in your car now will bolt right up to the motor.. so you wont need to get a new tranny, or axles.. The converter from the 4 cylinder is a higher stall then one for a 3.1L anyways so this is gonna make your car a little quicker off the line..

You will need exaughst done, engine, wiring harness, rad, I don't think you'll need the power steering or the hoses.. you'll wanna check the throttle cables you might be able to use the one out of your car.. gas lines might be inter changeable.. motor mounts are the same so unless yours are broken you shouldn't need to change them..
