Pits8 - 10 Mar 2008 02:19 GMT As a newbie here what is the protocol re posting links to you tube not exactly oz cars material ? Proposed links relate to compound radial engines and enormous ships engines . it appears there are a few engineers on here . and some of the links provide a look at elegant engineering and just nice gear (imo) Some may enjoy it as a change from bagging each other

I don't remember if they had a problem with the FWD inlet manifold not having clearance from the brake booster. I don't think so. That's the most common problem with taking a FWD engine and putting it in a RWD vehicle...

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > most common problem with taking a FWD engine and putting it in a RWD > vehicle... No problem with the inlet manifold but lots of work relocating cooling plumbing, in FWD form the remote thermostat is located at the rear of the engine but because of clearance issues it has to be relocated to the front, the alternator also has to be relocated as it hits the suspension tower in its original location. An alternator bracket form a AE92 Corolla bolted straight on but the I had to cut a 10mm piece out of the alternator at the main mounting point as the AE92 bracket is narrower. The engine is now ready to put into the car which I'm going to do on Saturday then the fun begins with the wiring.

If you find any nice car mods, i.e Suzuki Mighty Boy with a turbocharged Rolls Royce Merlin stuffed into it, please post those as well.
