Talked to Mark (dern) today who has a previously and successful achieved this task. 231 Engine, wiring harness and 231 ecu. 231 clocks and the six speed box to get your speedo ratio correct. Obviously central locking won’t work unless you change the body controll...

As the temperature started to drop off, I decided to spend the evening pampering the car. LOL Dropped the engine oil again after 100 miles. Fitted the GReady sump I had off Matt, matched up with a baffle plate. Took 5lts of 10/40 synthetic oil so it’s running nice clean engine oil Sent from my iPhon...
