If you do this, you'll also need the 4-cyl shifter mechanism/stabilizer bar and transaxle mounts too (one is different; the other needs to be repositioned on the frame rail).
We discovered the same thing when preparing to install the electric motor in the ForkenSwift Metro. Fortunately we had the 1.3L parts car so we were able to swap all the 4-cyl tranny parts into the Metro to make room for the electric motor that was slightly longer than the 1.0L engine.
