its a big job mate my step dad has done it :thumbsup:

 

which bits are hard???

 

as long as we have a strong enough back axle...

 

swap an modify the pedal box out of something else

 

and if it comes to it... make some engine mounts

 

 

 

 

im not saying i know what im talking about... but could you get a bit more info on the conversion :thumbsup:

An English will survive if you are not too brutal, survive easily if its an auto, other wise its an Mk1 capri 3 litre, that is if you can find one, Fit an LSD an english and it probably last for ages,

Tomorrow there will be a new member coming on line under the nane of slaphead, he has a Mk2 2 door with a essex fitted, very much a similar looking car to my own :mrgreen:

engine mounts from a V4 corsair will allow the engine to bolt right onto the existing X member, sump will meed to be a Mk4 Zephyr and front cover from either a V4 corsair or Zephyr v4 or 6, if you use the Zephyr or corsair bellhousing you can keep the hydraulic clutch
