Going to do mine soon, maybe this week as I have a week off, going to try and get it in by doing the following

Using the 1300 crossmember (Its narrower) and sierra sump and engine mounts.

Will need a bias box as the servo will get in the way, make the cossie rear gearbox mount fit.

You will need a big tunnel, the auto tunnel will fit the T5 but not without modifing, ive gone for a grp 4 big tunnel.

I am going to go back to standard power to try and get away with a english axle for a while, but if you can get a capri 2.8i special edition atlas axle with LSD. This will need to be narrowed unless you run arches.

If you go for the axle you will need a beefier prop, custom made from Recoprop.

All depends how far you want to go from the off

I will be trying to get it in with the bare minimum and then add bits as I have the money

Get me on MSN if you want to chat about it, otherwise use www.turbosport.co.uk they have fitting guides etc
