Hi Roly
One Major Issue, have you checked that your insurance company will insure
said beast, I have done this before and found that there are few classic
insurance companies that will insure modified. There are specialist insurers
for modified cars, but they don't all want to insure classic cars!
One other thing if fitting to a MKI car you cannot change the servo for the
bigger one from the MKII without getting real serious, like installing the
pedal box, and I'm not sure if that will go due to the heater box. Not sure
what they did on the MKI PI cars.

Subject: Engine swap
| Has anyone transplanted a 2500 engine into a 2000 (saloon that is).
| Any major issue?
| The diff is already a 2500 diff, which goes some way to explaining the
| soggy performance.
