as the title says im looking for as much info as possible, as in what parts needed besides the actual engine, would i require new rad, fans etc? do i need to chop anything away? and also i would like to see close ups of the engine from various angles to get a rough idea of what sits where.

thanks in advance

Take a look in there mate. I've been converting mine over the last few weeks! Good fun.

Mine needed a cut bulkhead to allow room for the powercap, and the original airbox mounting needed cutting off.
