Option 1: Very hard, different model, different engine etc.

Option 2: Doable, requires using loom, also would have to sort out drive shafts as the T2 runs a slightly wider gearbox which pushes the shafts out (t2 came with wider front track)
Easier would be T1 engine with gearbox, almost a straight drop in, or you could put T1 gearbox on T2 engine, requires flywheel swapped over.
