    Diffrences

    Say if some one put a GT block into Cabrio (thinking about a new 2005 project)

    What problems could I find

    1. The fuel tanks are different so I would have to use the Cab's plastic one.

    2. GT Altenator wouldnt fit on braket so would have to mess around with.

    Can anyone think of any other possible problems I could have?

    Was there not a post on Ice and Security about Alts, the sporting boys wanted a bigger one and it turned out the GT one wouldnt fit with out custom brackets, Sure thats what bass_mekanik said

    Suppose Paul_75sx is the best person to ask

    They fit perfectly dale. The mechanic who sorted me out with an AFM did the conversion successfully.
