Subject:4 Cyl VR-6 Conversion
From:John Rodgers
Date:Tue, 30 Nov 1999 18:55:39 -0600

Can anyone tell me about what goes into an engine swap using a 4 cyl
VR-6 engine.

Is this a desirable conversion?

Can it be mated to a standard 4 speed tranny.

Is an adapter plate required.?

Who makes one for this conversion?

Are diesel parts required?

If so what?

What about any  other components needed. Additional engine supports,
exhaust system, mufflers, relocation of alternator, power steering
pumps, AC compressor, etc,etc.

Any input on this would be appreciated.
