Frankly I would not bother. I would change the engine. A 1600 bay is a sluggish vehicle, it was slow even in its day and in modern traffic its worse. With a 1300 engine in a bay it becomes a moving roadblock IMO.

For mechanical basics its best to get a manual rather than expect people to write one for you online. You can order one here :-

I agree with Trikky2 - having no heating is the least of your troubles if you're expecting anything from a 1300SP!! If you're thinking of replacing your engine you might be lucky enough to find one with heat exchangers attached.
