    2.0ltr Megane Engine conversion, parts list???

    Can someone post up…..

    A list of parts needed or preferred when changing an 1800 engine to a Megane BE and Valver Head?

    For Example,

    - 2.0ltr ECU, is this def needed and can it run off an 1800?
    - Williams oil cooler bottom hose?
    - Williams starter motor, can I use the valver one with megane bottom end?
    - Which head gasket set, Williams/valver?
    - Which clutch, Williams/valver?
    - Head Bolts, willy/valver?
    - Water pump, Megane?
    - Engine mounts, would they be Williams, megane or valver?


    Overall these are the ones I'm most confused about but if anyone can think of anything that’s needed or a good idea to get, as maybe difficult to change once the engines been swapped then please post and perhaps a MOD can put it as a sticky, if we don't have one?

    Cheers

    Danny

    - Williams oil cooler bottom hose?
    - Williams starter motor, can I use the valver one with megane bottom end? The williams has a specific starter. But if you are staying with a Valver gearbox i would see if your original still fits.
    - Which head gasket set, Williams/valver? Depends on which head you fit
    - Which clutch, Williams/valver? Again - depends on your gearbox
    - Head Bolts, willy/valver? Think you can use either.
    - Water pump, Megane? Not sure
    - Engine mounts, would they be Williams, megane or valver? Stay to valver and williams mate.

    2.0 spec ecu
    if u want OE oil cooler u need appropriate hoses
    williams/megane headset and bolts (not 1.8 head gasket basically, and check cam oil seals as williams are different to 1.8/meg)
    either clutch
    water pump is same
    clio mounts needed, valver same as willy
