Read up on the porting gotchas: Porting Gotchas. And then keep all of that in mind when you go through and find all of your changes you've made when building your game. Hopefully you've marked all of your code changes/modifications so that you'll know where these changes are. The biggest change you'll probably see between 1.7 and 1.8 lies in the use of stateblocks, so if you don't have a lot of rendering changes then it should be a rather painless port -- so long as you pay attention to the differences and those porting gotchas.
