yes quite easy fit apparently, cheap engine to buy and fits straight to pg1 gearbox too.

nae botha

Sorry to hear of your troubles mate that is a real boot in the bollocks hope you get a replacement soon,to nice a car to be not running.

T series will more or less go straight in, you will need the wiring loom from a 420, and An ECu, Then you will need to think about the radiator and intercooler but its not too much work, I think they will go straight on the PG1 box

Yeah, sounds like too much time and work to sort it out. I wouldn't mind if i only lived a couple of miles from work and had time in the evenings to tinker but i need the car to be able to travel back and forth to kent from dorset to see my partner.:(

I would love to do a turbo conversion tbh. Miss my turbos.

If thats the case bud then your quickest option will be a replacement kv6 lump,

500-700 quid for a average mile engine,40-70k.


do the belts while doing the cams.

wonder what caused it to fail so bad

Gutted for ya mate,
Did it throw a rod like this :(
