    thanks mate.
    I don't think the article will reduce enough to send by PM, hence the request for email - which I'll then delete once article sent

    Just a thank you to Gavin for the email. This looks like an interesting project. You would need deep pockets to do this, even more so from way out here in Ozland. A lotto win, long holiday in Old Blighty, buy LSE and talk to these guys. I can see it in the future....... Yawn, wakes up, stops dreaming. Bugga

    Try uploading it. I have a feeling a 3MB PDF will be allowed! We are all quite interested in this conversion. I wonder how the spindly little diffs handled the power

    Diffs don't need to worry... scanning through the article, the v6 (allegedly) "...drives like a 3.9 , but with nicer engine note and less thirsty..." - paraphrased.
    So, I'm guessing some of the excess POWER / Torque, is traded in favour of MPG. Anyway, a Td5 doesn't rip them to bits, so a 2.7 should be safe, even if it's not de-tuned.

    Yep, but let's face it, if you're going to drop those dollars on the conversion, you'd probably lash out on some uprated parts for the rest of the driveline at the same time - I would.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    You noticed that too.... Similar torque my arse.... those things ..... Your talking 440 Nm .... LOL.

    Actually, I was thinking your try a similar thing to what the roadkill guys did to put the hellcat engine into the old charger. You keep unplug and disconnecting everything in the donor vehicle until you work out what the engine needs to run ... .Then move over the bits from the donor car it needs to work.

    It makes an LS1 conversion look easy with the aftermarket fueling and spark systems available (gee's you can even run your own ... eg: megasquirt).

    seeya,
