Heres a couple of snips from Burton's web site worth thinking about before buying an Essex lump, I was quoted nearly £300 to have the heads converted :(

Cologne V6 Engines
All 2.4 and 2.9 are suitable for unleaded fuel. 2.3 and 2.8 must have the following codes stamped in the centre of the cylinder head exhaust flange to designate suitability for unleaded:
* 2.3 - B or F
* 2.8 - D or E
Essex V6 Engines
All engines are unsuitable for running on unleaded fuel.

heres a link to their site, makes some interesting reading

Rob, Do you really believe that you will get a Driving Licence?

Also do you think you could ever get insurance on a modified

V6 engined van?

Dream on little boy! :lol:

Rob, just my opinion, fix the white one up but KEEP IT STANDARD then sell it on or use as a work horse

If you wanna play around with engines use your lovely orange van :wink:
