if i can get this one done yours should be loads quicker to do :D we need somone fighting the corner for the cossy v6 now :!: i do feel a little dissapointed i didnt develop mine further i dont think 16.98 was its limit in standard form by any means - if i had space and time i'd drop this engine into another van and carry on :D

i'm pulling the wiring out of the donor car today :) but it's more than a days job :shock: i still cant get the donor into the garage to pull the engine as my brother-in-laws car is in there :x but as soon as thats done engines out :mrgreen:

here's a pic of the cossy v6 wiring (all tagged up) - not much too it now its all out :)

im not making excuses, but we've all got different circumstances luke. if i get 1/2 hour a week to work on the van im doing well. just cant see it being roadworthy in the time available.
