The mechanical side of the swap done, 6 speed box in aswell which will definitely make a difference to the van. Quite like how that engine looks in the van!
Timing belt and water pump were also done at the same time just to be sure. The Eos hadn’t done many miles since it was done originally but it was due it with being 5 years old

[mention]MartinRS2K [/mention] I wanted a T6 to match but the right one came up in deep pearl black so couldn’t resist!

Awesome build thread bud - credit to you for all the mods you’ve added and given some ideas for my own. Will be keeping an eye on further updates

Each wire identified and labelled to correspond to the data from Erwin to see what was needed and what can be removed from the diesel side

At least you have looking at it a nice clean unit to carry out this conversion, good luck on the rest of the conversion

Cheers guys [mention]DW2207 [/mention] [mention]the swan fiend [/mention], I was pretty fortunate with the garage as it’s such a nice place and deals with high end cars so the place is immaculate
