    valver to williams

    right i asked a question about the inlet manifold being different between the two cars.

    ive also got a couple more questions .

    When i did a search on engine swaps i found a post where someone swapped the engines but it wouldnt fire up. they had to change the loom to the valver one, so when i put the willy engine in am i best to use the valver loom?

    also i asked about the water pipes being different, and some one mentioned the different because the willy block got oil cooler if i want to plumb this all in then do i have to get willy water pipes.

    if i think of anything else i will let you know

    thanks for the help

    i think loams are fine between willy and valver.

    yes or change the oil cooler for an air cooled one. about the same cost as buying new hoses from renault.

    use the loom which is in the car is best. Yes if you want the oil cooler to work get the oil cooler pipes. should be able to pick a set up reasonably cheap
