It is not really worth doing. You would be better off swapping the car for a
late (post '95 model) 960. The 2.5Litre version was available with auto or
manual gearbox the 3Litre only with auto. It is a more complex engine and
runs on Motronic 4.4 Fuel/Ignition system.

All the best, Peter.

I've seen it done, the result is very nice, it's quite a project though.
