Have had to change my user name as site wouldnt let me on for some weird reason so sorry to anyone whao has inboxed me
Tried to post some photos up last nite of how the engine conversion going but to no avail
Anyway adaptor plate made as is the flywheel just need to put the ring gear on
Decided on a Greedy clutch in the end with 25% discount from europarts came in at £82
Had to cut out the jimny engine mounts and have made my own much simpler.
Engine fits a treat have a 300tdi rad in place which should be more than up to the job.
Next biggest hurdle i guess will be the sump clearance is not good when you also consider my front axle is 60mm foward of a standard jimny
Will try and post some pictures again tonite

Is that including engine?
Hi there sorry to butt in, have you tried ringing Andy at Milner as he makes the conversion and sells them to KAP? I always find KAP prices to be slightly expensive, if you are interested in one I have Andys number!
