Hi everyone, this is the build on my mk6 transit, i converted it to a 3.0 turbo diesel and its also now an automatic, engine And box from a e39 bmw 530d.
This was it when I got it
After removing the 2.4 engine I made up a frame for the engine and box from the bmw to make it easier to line up
Engine is too long and wide so bulkhead needs to be modified
There was plenty of bits I didn't photo along the way, just was trying to get things done and would forget, engine mounts etc, on the front , I used the original mk6 crossframe, modified with some 10mm plate in the right positions then seam welded, moved the cross member forward a little, the rear mount I made from box section with some supports, and the rubber mounts from the bmw engine are used,
All bolted up and in
