My Babies getting a transplant. Finally found what I need for more power. Ordered it yesterday, and should be in sometime before the end of the year. Cannot wait.

Alan, please can you make sure that you photo-document the transplant when you do it???

Will make for a very interesting and useful thread on the forum!

Good Luck!

Sorry guys, would have gotten back to you earlier but I was on a plane to Brazil. Yeah John it's all work unfortunately.
Ross, I will definitely be selling the motor with ECU etc. Probably keep the AC compressor. I have just fitted brand new Wildcat headers to it as the old ones had cracked. I'm looking in the region of R25000,00 for the motor, but it is always negotiable. It has 180000km on the clock, so just broken in. Depending on when the motor arrives here, I unfortunately cannot give a date when the motor will be available, but I would count on towards the end of the year or early next year.
