G60 Conversion advice

[Stone0311 0]

folks,

Have just stripped my 16v lump out of my rado to go in my cabby.

Have a planned g60 conversion for the rado this summer although i am yet to obtain the engine etc. Are there any common sections of the wiring to or in the engine bay that are common between the 16v and g60 or is it all different - trying to work out what i can use for my 16v conversion without making my life hard when i do my g60 conversion

You'll need an entire G60 digifant loom, 16v's being K-Jetronic are completely different

You'll need a Digifant fuel pump as well as it runs at much lower pressure, ideally :)

That makes life easier in a way

How much of the loom is different? will i need to go back as far as the fuse box?

Does anybody know where the ISV control unit is hidden?

yes you'll need to go back to the fuse box.

Isv control is done by the digifant ecu.

Can anybody outline a shopping list for a conversion from a 16v to G60?

 

From what i understand:

Engine bay loom

ECU

Driveshafts?

Brakes

Obviously the lump

Might be worth ringing Jez at RKE dude, he's got a beast of a G60 engine for sale, and everything you'll need (including advice on how to install!)
