Is fitting the 20v a straight forward job? Great car, one of the best looking saloons of it's era.

Been doing some degreasing for coupe engine bits and started painting the block.
Need to replace the bearing in the front engine mount housing for the power steering pump and rear crank oil seal

Lovely car! I am going to bookmark this.
Is there enough room for a FMIC? I am sure the 155 shares an intercooler with the Dedra, sitting behind the left wheel. I didn't think a FMIC would fit on the Dedra. What intercooler is that from?

Will the engine is ready to be removed next weekend need the get the coupe 20vt engine ready to go in. Been looking at the Evo intercooler I’m going to have to modify the bumper or front cross member so can wait until I’ve got a better turbo    |
