The first issue was the engine mounts and gearbox mounts. If you are going to tackle this talk to an engineer or someone who has done it before you start.

The next thing I fitted was a suitable radiator and thermo fan. Then ran organised the hoses. A quick trip to super cheap with some templates made from wire solved this.

I then woked on the intercooler/intake plumbing and pod filter installation.

Next task was the computer. Been electronically minded I used the original computer. I removed everything that was not required and now I need to get the chip re-programed. Be careful if you do this as the computer has many inputs obtained in weird ways. It does not always come direct from the sensor.

If you have got a welder - get some mandrel bends and pipe. DIY exhaust.

Next on my adjenda is intercooler fitmet, tailshaft, fuel pump installation.

Sorry for such a long post - hope it helps and remember everyone will do this conversion differently.
