Finally done the engine swap. Currently running it in on the ct20b and stock ecu. Had a huge problem with coolant leaks from all the pipes over the gearbox but think I've finally got it under control. Engine sounds well and very quiet. Not so keen on the clutch though, very on and off and quite juddery if you don't get it quite right.

Some pics.

Also some exterior pics with the new BC rep lip. Wish I could run no front plate.

Not good updates unfortunately. Removing the engine and transmission for my mk3 project and looking to get rid of this. Hopefully someone will take it on and it won't get scrapped.

New car.
