The engine mounts are connected to the chassis via welds to suit the ford engine

The tranny crossmember gas also been cut , moved back 20mm and rewelded to suit the ford conversion

The engineering that cost me an arm and a leg is recognised as a series 1 so if i put it in another chassis it will then require re engineering

If the seties 4 has asc abs esc etc the engineering process is completly different and will then have to comply under those regulations

If the series 4 plus is a 3 litre (most are) the torque amount from one engine to another must not exceed more than 20 or 22 percent of the motor youre putting in otherwise will requìre far more stricter process of engineering

Id rather remove 1x body and all wiring than remove entire driveline and engine tranny looms etc


I've thought long and hard this way round is far more beneficial for me.
Fair enough mate. Good luck with it. You might want to speak to an engineer first to make sure what you are doing does not require a new certificate.
