Chucking it in is a lottery, minimum you need to do is a cambelt and water pump change.

Yeah looks like i might need to find someone else to build and fit this for me!

Need to get it done this still as i have spend alot of money on it recently ready for the conversion!

What would it cost for a engineering company to do it for me?
