Holden V6 Into Ke70

[rke_011]

We have done it, ecotec v6 into a ke70, the conversion isnt that hard to do if you have a bit of mechanical knowledge.

 

The sump fits between the x-member and swaybar. custom mounts and gearbox crossmember need to be made, as do custom extractors and tail shaft.

 

easy peazy...

 

were also building a v8 one aswell :)

Have you managed to register one? Engineered? I'm in the process of doing a KE20 and was thinking to rego it if its possible.

 

Ive already gone 10.30@135 in a VP Commodore and have a more grunty motor in mind for the KE20.

 

Though it will be N/A for the engineers...

its not gonna be registered its a track car :)

read the previous posts guys it states YOU NEED CUSTOM ENGINE MOUNTS, so in other words get an engine crane, drop the motor and box into it where you are happy with it and then grab a welder and start making some mounts :jamie:
