Not quite sure about the engine interfearing with the steering box.
If its the exst manifold that fouls it, ill get extractors made.
Altho, R&P would be nice.
|
I'm pretty R&P will be necessary, but I don't own an RA, so I will stand corrected on that.

Quite sure you'd need R&P. Even a skinny little windsor v8 doesnt' leave much room to the steering box. From my measurements a 1UZ won't even fit extractors around/passed it (somebody will confirm this...).
Engineer required subframe connectors, crossmember bracing and strut tower bracing to be happy with mine.Although this was a while ago
Wanted upgraded discs on the front but didn't care about the rear brakes or diff, but then Vicroads inspection guy wouldn't accept it without an upgraded diff.
A note about my experience with dellow for gearbox conversions: I purchased an r154 and bellhousing and clutch ass to suit a Chrysler V8. Motor made 420hp at f/w. Initially had clutch problems (valiants use a weird linkage setup), after lots of headaches and gearbox in and out several(*heaps) times, and several different clutch setups, it came down to the dellow clutch fork. Very poor quality casting, didn't locate properly and was basically trash with a shiny coating. Throwout bearings got noisy and showed blueing (from overheating) each time with very little use. Gearbox purchased as reco'd unit had noticable bearing grumble every time after the car was run hard. All this in less than 2000kms of use. And in my experience the after sales support matched the product I was supplied with.
But perhaps other ppl have had better experiences.
From sounds of things best to get the bellhousing from CRS and a clutch and flywheel from elsewhere
