the engine itself bolts inplace fine

you'll need to add a fuel pump either to the original tank (might cause probs) or to a GTE tank and you'll need to uprate the fuel lines

the engine loom comes with the GTE lump and will need to be mated up with the original wires round the engine bay

pretty easy but expect to take your car off the road for a week.

youl need the engine + gearbox

gte tank+pump and some new fuel lines (lines cost about ?25 with ruber hoses + clips)

you will need a GTE exhuast

the wiring is a piece of p155. mainly to get power to the engine loom, then the wires for you temp/oil sensor
