I'm hoping the slow ass piece of s**t truck i've got can do 70. Tbh, i'm hoping it gets me there full stop!

Whichever has fuel
No.
Fcuking thing failed the MOT and seeing as i've been pulled twice for not having one, I thought it best to get it done. The wheel bearing is seized solid and the rear lights need re wiring.
I've borrowed a LT35 that looks like it's been pimped by xzibit. I'm going to look (even more) ridiculous.

sh*tter on the MOT, but lol's on looking more ridiculous.
I take it you are transporting the valver?
I haven't forgot your offer, we have a slight bit more time (until end of april) so am trying to sort a date and will then be in-touch mate,
sorry for the hi-jack potter, hope your well
Hmmm...
Didn't take you long to get it off lol - want me to bring a fuel rail guard with me? or is the other thing we were talking about not going to be long...
Thanks for the loan of the ramp for tweaking my home made exhaust with, SO much easier than on the drive at home.
I dunno mate. I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Soooo...
Next phase is in progress...
Engine came out this morning, this had 2 reasons. To donate its gearbox for Vikki's new 172, and the 20vt conversion to start.
Let the madness begin

Ill be watching this with great interest!
Dont suppose you could give a summary of roughly what you have to change for the 20v lump? i know the obvious things such as engine & box ha.

Engine, box, exhaust, shafts, gear linkage, clutch setup, rad setup to suit VAG pipe work, mounts etc
Lots of work then!
Look forward to watching the build process...20vt nice strong lump.

Be good to see how you get on with this.
I had half hour spare this afternoon, so a Small update...

Soon to be a weapon
IIRC engine weight is similar but the gearbox (due to not being made of cheese) is heavier.
Tbh, it's sat on the floor now, and its ride height isn't much if any different.
Come across the next issue. PAS pump sits too low, so I will have to either run an EPAS setup or go for the saxo pump idea.
wow.. quick progress as usual!!
I have a complete saxo pump setup with billet mounting bracket, custom hoses and heat shielding from Icemans racecar if your interested.

Dan , do you think I could get a pd engine in the mk2 bay? If so then some diesel monster is going to be created
Yes it'll fit. I was tempted to do it with my c**t of a DCI.
