Yes, but it's not that simple. All the wiring, sensors, and tuning will need to be modified.

Yes, its that simple. You just need a tune. LAP and LE5 are almost identical.

I think its even possible to just swap blocks. But might be easier to do whole engine instead of dealing with timing stuff.

id say go with the kit less head ache, seeing a fair amout of issues pieced together kits and make sure you get a good tune, and supporting mods is a no brainer ie. exhaust, clutch
