any pictures of the engine in yet then?

How did you get on with the gearbox mount in the end?

RE: china blue HDI conversion to XUD - Mattcheese31 - 27-02-2014

Are you sure you want to fit a longer gearbox to a car with a longer to spool turbo? Stick with DT box IMO mate Smile

RE: china blue HDI conversion to XUD - 7057sam - 27-02-2014

was going to use the dt box but had a few snags with clutch cable fitting and also the mounting is different so just thought putting the hdi box in would save a lot of problems

RE: china blue HDI conversion to XUD - Matt-Rallye - 27-02-2014

Looks an interesting project Smile

Lovely bit of laning in the DT there aswell Tongue

there's obviously something i don't understand, you're dropping an XUD9TE in a HDI shell yes? . . . . .then how can there be a problem with using the proper box for it? . . .Smile
