engine swaps and problems

Torskin · 08-02-04, 05:00 PM

I been looking through the forums here for info on a conversion of a 2f to a 3b but have not been able to find anything of value. Can anyone provide the thread that will answer my questions which are: what needs to be changed / added if i was to remove a 2f petrol and replace it with a 3b diesel such as engine mounts, bell housings, transmissions etc. Is there a thread that covers this info

Thanks

Engine Mounts, bellhousing, input shaft on tranny will all need to be changed. In my opinion better to get the correct tranny and bellhousing with the motor than try to change everything over. The changing of the input shaft is a real PITA unless you are tranny guy.
