Hi guys.

I am currently putting an engine togrther for converting my 86 cabby to rs spec.

Im a little worried about the wiring involved and wondered if anyone on here was clued up on how to do it or if there are any guides out there to point you in the right direction. I want to keep it standard to start with on mfi loom. I have a loom that supposedly splices into the existing on my cabby but not to sure how to do this. Could do with some guidance really or getting in touch with someone in the know about these things. I am located in leicestershire. If anyone fancies giving me a hand there would be free beer and food involved.

Any help or guidance would be much appreciated

cheers, Lewis

 

just get a decent loom and swap the whole loom if the rs is gonna be running mfi

 

as mr bear said just swap whole loom, they aint expensive and are quite easy to do, im converting to efi soon so ill have an engine loom u can have foc if u wanna go about it that way

 

+2. I bought my last loom for 16 quid off ebay and it wasnt cut either. Just replace old with new and job done.

 

Thanks chaps. Will deffo take you up on the loom offer turbocab. Never done a conversion before so just want to make sure i do it right

 

froggy if your just collecting bits I suggest you buy a full rotten rst so you have all the little bits and pieces you will need!

 

With the amount of money i have spent building the engine up i dont think i could afford even a rotten rs! Dont tend to see many at the minute either.

 

There's a sticky at the top of the room that should help mate.

mate its pretty simple, as said av a read of the sticke, when are u going to be building?

 

soon as pos really mate. just need loom now and rad so i can strip the old one out and drop the turbo engine in
