With my small budget I could only afford a rotted/smokey/jank cossie!!!

I now have a BIG list of parts needed but does anyone know if i need to change:-

Fuel pump
Engine mounts
Rad Fans
Clutch/hande brake/speedo cable/s
Pedals
power steering rack

Thanks again!!

ps
if anyone else needs the list, let me know and i'll send it over!!

fuel pump yes, also I think the tank may be diferent on the 2000E, rack no, pedals no, mounts probably as I think the arms are different, handbrake no speedo no clutch cable quite possibly, rad fans and rad yes think so

speedo will also need to change as cable is different and the speedo head DOESN'T go to 170mph in a 2000E,wiring looms,doing away with master brake cylinder! will add as I remember but there WILL be loads of other things m8.

If you want it to look cossie the speedo as said will need changing, but turn/clock ratio the same so will fit to old 2000e clocks and work accurately.
