172 Cup Engine & Box Into A Ph1 172...

[.GAZ.]

Anything major that i should watch 4? ie, different loom/connectors/sensors?

Should it be plug & play so to speak?

I will be running it with no ac as the cups never had it!

Thanks in advance!

bare engines are the same,,,, so will go straight in
sensors are too but near as b*llocks is to swearing you'll have to swap everything off the ph1 lump

 

[.GAZ.]

what kinda stuff are we talkin about swappin?

 

[ditz]

everything lol basically,, nothing to worry about if you can take an engine out swappng a few ancils are the least of your worrys.

alternator setup and upper inlet mainly

why wud u want to do this???

 

[ditz]

obivously knackered engine in the ph1!!


i've just re read what you want to do... why not just keep the ph1 as it was with regards to the AC setup??

if you insist on fitting it as per in a cup,,, you'll need to get a cup power steering high pressure pipe.. and modify the low pressure one (which is loads of doe)

and also need the cup alternator...

Basically, i can get a running 172 cup shell with engine, box, running gear etc!

LOL your heaters dont work anyway so who needs aircon too :rasp: Widows down!!

Bit of a treck to get that tho no?

everything swaps over mate, even better if you have a car its coming out of, just haul one out, fit the cup lump with the ph1 inlet (for cable throttle) and should be good to go

Thanks Russ, just trying to sort a deal out!

 

[David Ramsey]

Will go in no problem as long as you swap everything over
