I want this more for the factor of the EFI, the power is just a bonus.
I've searched the forum and found multiple threads on the conversion but nothing relating to my question.
My questions:
-How much do you think it would cost for a mechanic to do this? And WOULD a mechanic do this?
-Is it worth it?

Not much chop when it comes to the running parts on my car, so I wanna leave it to the pro's :P

Cheers!

Hmm, looks as though I might just find some time and figure it out myself!
Using a few of the build threads as guidelines :P

I sourced a complete engine and a already modified engine loom quite cheap. Anyone can pull an engine out, I did mine myself in a morning. I'm ordering a petroworks kits unless u have a body lift. While ur engine is out rust proof ur engine bay throw in a new clutch. Engine in is just as easy. Then u can buy nodded looms off eBay on a exchange basis. Pretty much plug and play. Heaps of info on this site bout the electric side of things. Don't forget to do sump pickup mod. Then just run a ext fuel pump. Hook it all up. Hey presto. Or u could do all the eng work then just tow it to a auto sparky and get them to run loom. It would be reasonably cheap.

Any Zook guys local to ya? I have put them in for a good meal, and the promise to go wheeling with our group once or twice.

If you are willing ta' help and learn I am sure there's a local Zook guy who wouldn't mind given; a hand. If ya cant find anyone willing, I bet there are a few who would do it for some side, or beer money too.

so anyone local to him that wants a side job, beer money or a new Zook buddy to go wheel with?

FWIW
If you go get the tools and the kit you need to install it, help is only an post, or an Email away. You are welcome to PM me anytime you get stuck as well.

You can do it armsup
