[QUOTE="Ghostrider-SG, post: 79167, member: 1035"] Sorry to butt in but M20 and M50 conversion is a NIGHTMARE !! Just plonking in the engine will not do. You will need the full set of wire harness, gearbox (cos M50 5 speeder), drive shaft, rear diff. The only thing that is the same between the M20 v M50 is the mounting point only. In short...buy engine only not enuff...you need a whole halfcut...which is plenty in Malaysia. Nightmare...not impossible...its a heck of a job but as long as everything is in place, 10 grand should do it nicely (plus minus 2-3 grands). But if not going for drastic, a air mass will help respond from the M20 tremendously. [/QUOTE]
