Default y is it always me lol!

well the planned top secret conversion is now off the books, due to the engine being knacked so going down the easy route.... how much is a fair price to have a DET engine fitted? i wanna do it myself, but time is very short at the moment, and i cant wait around doing bits and bobs here and there!

you can get a recondition engine for about 700 thats what mine cost from api engines. the other problem would be finding someone with enough time to fit and wire one coz i does take a bit of time to install it all........ well it took me months with a few teething problems

I can do you a complete det wiring loom conversion ready to bolt in including transistors/dropping resistors and wired in relays and post it to you with a diagram for connecting the remaining 5ish wires to earth/ignition feed and battery.

Or i can do the whole conversion for you including all parts. Id need the car dropped off for a while.Either a week for just the wiring or 2/3 weeks for full conversion
( This is becasue i only have about 3 evenings a week spare to work on my own projects at my work. The other evenings i spend with the gf

It wold cost a bit though as i wouldnt fit a det engine into your car without a basic rebuild. Best pm me. I could be interested in a part trade with your failed engine project
