Not a bad engine to use!

I've written a 20v guide on here, it's quite old, so the cost is probably out, but the method is still the same.

Fantastic that's the very reason I joined the forum to get everyone's hints and tips!

I'll have a good study through your guide!

Great guide, plenty food for thought. Think I will go for a mk3 subframe and fuel tank as well, seems to make things a bit easier. Will probably look at some plug and play wiring any recommendations??

I did think about air con but after reading ur other guide I think I might give that a miss

There are a couple of people who do plug and play options.
If you go on the facebook group, most of them are on there, put a shout out and I'm sure someone will come to you.

And the air con was a rather large ball ache, but ultimately worth it.
Was lovely driving around this summer with the windows up!
