So you bought the car with the job half done, You will be lucky to find someone to try to fix a job that someone else has started,

these engine convertions always seem easy but you always have problems. especialy with the wireing ect.

Sorry about the negative reply just being honest,

Good luck

Dave

pretty much as above, i had a half done van before and the guy who did the loom beside me and still couldnt make sense of it,

if yours is really that bad then it might be worth having it ripped out and start again, may work out cheaper in the long term aswell
