Hey guys i am pretty much allready to go with installing my rebuilt a15. I just need a heads up from people who have done this conversion before on some things to look out for and the do's and dont's. Soo any info or mod suggestions will definitely help hoping to get it all done in time for the akaroa cruise.

In a 1200?
Unless you have a 1200 ute Xmember, you'll need to modify the engine mount brackets a bit.

And you will need to modify Alternator wiring. If you are fitting a 5 speed you will also need to modify how the clutch cable fits to the bellhousing on a 1200.
Exhaust may need some planning also.

If it helps, I have gone through the same process, so feel free to check out my build thread...
