As long as you have a 2.8 mk2 just ignore the fact that its a a 24v and refit everything like you would if you were just changing the engine for another 2.8 and when you need ya loom doing send me a pm lol

if your going with auto use the 24v box, but if you got a manual the type 9 is not a great box and as the car is quite heavy it will not take long before it will shit its self.

fuck yes, its going to be a total cunt sorting out the ecu and wiring, you need the key barrel and key shit.
you can use the BOA ecu and loom, but they are getting fucking hard to find

i had a 2.9 24v BOB 4x4 in my escort cosworth shell. Wiring was not that much of a problem as i used the full loom from the scorpio. It went & handled really well.
