Engine Conversion....Ideas!

[F17BAD]

cheers guys for that.
i have placed some parts on order to get the ball rolling as i know that if i dont it will neveer happen
16v clocks but as mine is anni i wanted the 16v anni clocks like kells but well see
16v loom
twin rad fan setup
clutch pedal (full setup in gear shifter)
16v rear mount


sorry ive high jacked someones thread :embarassed:

you don't need a 16v loom mate.. use your own loom
you don't need clutch pedal, use your own as yours is a later 8v so it has provisions on your pedal box for Hydro set up
Twin rads is not needed if you can't get one but i used one
get all new mounts, all 3 i can supply part number sif need be

16v annie clocks were a major issue to get hold of mate, i had to blag a guy on ebay who was selling his 16v annie and if it wasn't for him checking my build thread and seeing my hard work, id never have got those clocks

you can use the 8v ones but believe me 140mph is nothing.. mine charges past this EASILY

i will reply to your inbox message in detail mate atr - still not had chance

Some quality stuff on here! should deffo be making a more frequent visit on to the forums  Just to check though would it not be better to buy the same gearbox out of the Mk4 as i have the 8V or it irt a case of being able to mount it properly?

Mk4 gearbox is a bit big and I believe does not match up to the mounts, even if it does fit in the engine bay....
8v gearbox will be a bit weak with all that extra torque and will last about 5 mins especialy if its got a lot of miles on it
