Too many things to go wrong let alone what parts fit where, Trust me I know.
Ill never do a motor swap again. Looking forward to your comments when you
have your NEW ride back on the road
Just read through this thread one thing keeps popping up in regards to NADS.
Everyone is going by Mudski's figures problem is he drives a manual so revs
are completely different to an auto. Not putting Mark down or anything just saying
we are not comparing the same thing, Ive been driving around lately
[burbs] in the lower range on the auto which is more in line with the Manual.
Egt's dont go over 200c , so when you set the dawes up with your new motor
this might give you something to think about, set cruising boost to revs not KPH
I made the same mistake
Going from Di to CRD is not really a conversion, its more of a upgrade coz they're both ZD30'S just the crds are better imho
