The later 1800 hub is a bolt-on; the one issue being it is the later 5 X 108 bolt pattern. You'll need 1800 caliper brackets as well in order to make the swap.

The Wilwood setup is moderately expensive initially but with rotors for $35 each and brand new calipers selling for $160, the longer you run it, the more attractive it becomes. Rotor hats and caliper brackets are the only thing custom and I can easily replicate mine for around $400. I did it a year ago so I'd need to confirm costs...
