300tdi into 2.5 turbo Help!

(1/3) > >>

central defender:
Hi there new member based in Sunny Fife, Scotland. I am considering putting a 200 or 300 tdi into a E plate 2.5 Turbo.

Is it just a straight transplant or is there loads to consider eg engine mounts, rad etc etc. I haven't sourced a donor vehicle (for the engine) yet when I do should I grab as many ancillaries as I can or will the engine alone cover it.

Thanks in advance folks

:D I had 300tdi and r380 g/box put in mine they moved the engine mounts change the seat box transmission tunnel and floor panels :D  Best thing i have ever done though!!

did this one not to long ago & had to fit new engine mounts,adjust the seatbox & floorplates & fit the correct centre tunnel & diaphram on the bulkhead,

where about in fife are you?

central defender:
Thanks for quick response, I should have mentioned that its a 90, not sure if that makes a difference to the work. Glad you haven't regreted the transplant.
