As long as your using a 91 or early 92 6 bolt, nothing else. If you using a pre 91 you'll want to swap over most of the sensors, throttle body, fuel rail, coil pack, power transistor, etc from the later 92 7 bolt.
All 92s should be 6 bolt. The split happened in april which is likely when they started manufacturing the 93 model year that would've hit dealers in early fall. Did you check and see what you have? The basic longblock swaps right over. If you are indeed swapping 7 for 6 you'll need a flywheel. Only if you have a 90 longblock then you would need to mess with the oil cooler also.
Motor mounts are the same. Only diff. in engine mounts are fwd/awd and auto/5spd
Not all 1gs have 6bolts, and the swap requires a good bit of know how, just follow the link on road race engineering and everything works fine. That's what i followed when i did my swap. But I highly recommend you buy their harness, its only 50$ with shipping and its so much better than trying to rewire, make your own, or buy a knockoff.
