well the engines being changed as soon as possible after the new year....would it be safe to fit this at the same time?
Yep depends hwo your going about the swop though I assume you know your FK need bodging to fit (drill the holes oversize) to fit the 172 hubs assuming your using 172 brakes? Or are you keeping the stock brakes?
Not worth doing an engine swop though buy the proper car if you want a the sleeper look sell the kit. its much easier and often cheaper.
There so many ways round the brakes issues if your going to chnage engine looms etc depends totally what you want etc.
