3.2 Carrera Motor into 73 MFI Coupe

I'd like some advice from someone who has already done this swap please.
I have an 87 3.2 Carrera(I've changed the flywheel) mated to a 915 Aluminium Trans and am ready to put it into my 73 coupe.
I have SSI heat exchangers and an sSS rear box, question I have is firstly what do I do about the heating, do I change the engine Tin, do I retain the blower assy on the 3.2? Also what exactly do I need to join the motor to my car, I have the 3.2 Fuel pump and coil, should there be a new fuel filter? what else should there be on the side of the engine bay where the spark box normally goes, I know that the Motronic brain goes under the seat inside the car but what else do I need????? What about the breather hoses???
Anyone help??

I just put in 88 carrera motor with 915 LSD into my 74. I think I got all the bugs out. I used all 88 carrera items except that I located the fuel pump in the rear where my original 74 pump was located. I had to modify the 74 harness a bit to match the 88 engine harness. Since I am not going to use the rear defrost, I left out the rear electrical panel. You can come over or I can stop by. I am in Livermore.

Fantastic Steve, really appreciate it, It'd be great to come over and have a look.
Can you send me a number so that we can arrange a good time.
Thanks

Actually, I used your wiring print out to help me clarify the Haynes wiring diagram. Thanks Jim.
