When you say "Ready to bolt in" are you saying that it would just slide str8 into a swb beddy? or that its basically just not a V6 block?

What condition are we talkin?

[Bedfordcrazy]

hey kirk, trust me mate it wont just slide straight into a swb. We are doing mine as we speak, and i wish it would just go in. You need to fit new engine mounts and cut the floor. I hope mine will be in place by thursday night, friday, so if you want this V6, i will let you know how we go, how easy, or how hard. lol. When we cut out the floor, i will be doing templates for every part of the engine install, and will be happy to send out a copy of templates for members here, that need them.

Hey George, did you buy the conversion kit or are you doing it from scratch?

[Bedfordcrazy]

hey mezzmo, kirk, i bought a donor car, VP 93 Series 2 for $400, and got a conversion kit from moree for about $1,500, and as we are finding, the lack of instructions from moree are making the job harder. the hardest part is where to locate the new mounts. we could weld them in and cut them and reweld, but what a mess that would be, so looking at the pics from moree, we are guessing. I hoped to be done today, but monday seems to be the closer to the day now.

Hay George, van came today, no conversion kit on this one, same sump, sits above cross member, firewall cut at mid point down on both sides, V6 motor sits low, Will take a picture of the  mounts, soild as, power steering looks like Transit, but is not? power steering sits out in front of the motor not under as normal, but works well. Power SH..T I have had a couple of 8s, but sorry guys this is unreal on the power side, I am thinking the chip has been upgraded because If I plant my foot the van just sits there with the back wheels doing 80ks, will take photos tomorow if anyone is interested. Yes the floor George, it is not cut past the lip. Cheers. For those that have seen the photos there is room for the left foot, but feels better placed in front, the Air box sits up under the van on the floor.
