Thats the ad for a engine, seems to be complete but what else will i need to make it fit? Is it a cheap job or am i looking at half the job here? im no mechanic so be kind.

Just get a ST170. By the time you have gone through all the hassle of fitting the Engine/Loom/Box, then declaring it to your insurers and the DVLA, you would of wished you just bought a ST170 outright, not to mention the fact that ST170's are much nicer as they have the bodykit, leather interior, diamond cut wheels etc. etc.

Alot of work! The inlet and exhaust are on opposing sides to start with so exhaust needs modding, you would then need mounts for the other engine and then sort the electric side, you may also need to change suspension etc.

Been covered loads of times on here before. You will need a donor ST170 as you will need to change a HUGE amount of bits to get it working. As said, just buy an ST170 :)

looking at buying the donor car (prob smashed one) taking the engine and hubs and selling the rest.
