Can anyone recommend somewhere to get an engine conversion done, preferably South Eastern suburbs? I have a VS V6 Ute, I want to change the engine with a Reconditioned Supercharged V6. I know where to get the engine, but I can't find anyone to do the conversion. I think I'll have to change the CPU, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator. Not sure about the wiring loom. I have extractors, with a standard sized sports exhaust. I'm not sure if they need to be replaced or not? I don't think I need to update brakes and suspension, but I will in future anyway. Any info (price) or suggestions would be appreciated.

mate if ur taking out a v6 to chuck in another v6 its not hard at all. ur box/tailshaft are obviously not gonna need any modification. hire an engine crane, few beers and make a day of it with some mates. of course if uve got no idea, then give a local engine builder/engineer a ring and ask for a quote. you will need a larger fuel pump, and might aswell go for a rfpr. wiring loom shouldnt be too hard, pretty much same.
