I'm fairly confident that they're comprehensively different... main thing being the EL head has a cam in it ;)
XE block has a cam in it... One is OHV, the other is OHC. |

Yeah those mounts will work, plus you will need the trans, loom and ecu from the doner car. Depending on the state you are in, you will probably need an engineers cert.
