Hi everyone jsut thought id share a few photos of some of the progress on my conversion . Ive just finished modifying my firewall to make way for the water pipe and cas , for someone thinking of goin down this road its a very easy job . Where the cas hits the firewall its actually double panel so by removing the outa bit with the raised section gives u plenty of clearance . i just tidyed it up with a few stitches of weld and some bog .

And heres just a few other photos of stuff . I was very lucky to come across someone selling a conversion package that gave me pretty much everything i need to covert it , thermostat housing , exhaust manifold , modified intake , turbo etc etc . So most of the hard work has already been done . :D
