Hi Chaps
I thought there might be some interest in my 03 Transit, originally a 2.3 petrol manual, now fitted with a Holden (GM) 3.8 Injected V6. Actually thought I'd see a few others of these on here from Oz.
I used a conversion kit from V6 Conversions here in NSW, it contained wiring looms, Body Control Unit, Speedo compensator, cross beams for motor and gearbox, throttle pedal conversion, radiator mounting brackets, and some basic guidelines. Thought it was going to be plug and play but of course it wasn't! Had to use the dash cluster from the Holden car but it fitted a treat, wiring it up took a while though.
Had to move the fuel tank back but used the original Ford fuel pump. Had exhaust and driveshaft made and power steering hoses but have yet to hook up the airconditioning. Bought a nice shifter and used the GM 4L60E auto transmission. Used the Transit air filter box and had to bodgy up an air duct (only bit I'm not pleased with) to the intake as it's on the opposite side of the engine bay.
Anyway, enough of that... here's a couple of pics
