Hello everybody Now, this may be the most ridiculous thing you have ever been asked but! I have been offered for free a Fiesta 1800 diesel with a mint engine Will it fit into my 2.0 CU engined camper? Do I use Fiesta or VW box and what about mountings and drive shafts etc etc etc. Coling system can be sorted but it's the other stuff I am not sure about. Anyone done such a conversion? Now please don't laugh, I'm thinking of economy

they should have payed you to take it away LOL!

theres a few that have done this chckout ,, use the bus box

you will need to put a rad up front, all sorts of pipes,heat sensors,guages, loom rewiring, engine mounts, gearbox conversion kit, all for a poxy 18d fiesta engine dont bother. save the £3.000 you would have spent, sell the (free) fiesta and buy a westy california diesel. that way its done for you. plus you will have power steering and heat as standard

^^^^^^
As he said....simply not worth doing.
