Default differences between 1.8 K series fitments

I know the 1.8 was fitted to the 75, Freelander, 200 and 400 series amongst others, but what are the differences between them? Apart from the obvious 120, 135 and 160 HP output, are the ignition, injection etc the same?

Basically, yes.

I had a ZS I fitted a 135 TF engine to.
A change of engine mounts and make sure the wiring loom is correct for the vehicle and it went straight in.
