Post by moz_goodwood_309 Sun 16 Nov 2008, 19:48

just to let everyone know i swapped my twin weber carbs for a complete 406 turbo engine with only 70k miles all ancillires and an unlocked ecu (deal of the century) yesterday, so will be cracking on with the conversion over the winter months

ill take some pictures as i go along an post the progress up here, it wont be the flashiest install, because my budget is tighter than a nuns chuff

but a virtually free engine is a good start Very Happy
