Hoping to change the standard ka engine into an rs engine... but does it always work?? :blonde:

 

As far as i know its been done a few times with great success

 

Rs engine?

by that I take it you mean CVH turbo engine?

 

Mate, assuming your talking about a CVH RS turbo engine, it has been done plenty of time's now and it's considerably straight forward. The hardest part is probably getting the wiring loom sorted out.

You'll also need to modifiy the position of the starter motor if you're planning on using the Ka's IB5 gearbox, along with that you'll need an engine mount fabricated and possibly a custom charge carrier as this often foul's the bonnet.

Hope that help's.
