Well whatever you do it will have to be from the front, cos there's no room down the sides :o

Such a shame you lost your old garage :roll:

i think anyone who's seen me at a meet over the last year knows :lol: i just can't keep a secret :oops: especially when ive had a few :lol:

............. i'm gonna try to fit another engine i've got ....... i say try as it's a rather large one :o and if i cant get a nice neat 'factory' fit i'm putting the cossy back in turbo'd up :D

as for what engine it is you'll have to wait :lol:

but clues are :D
it makes a lot more BHP than the cossy as standard :D
as far as i know there has never been one fitted to a transit before :D
