Xu Engine Into Tu Body?

[edbar 6]

Will a xu9 go into a 205 xs easily? Anything needed?

Thanks

yes. As long as its not a pre 86 205 model (but then it had a different engine code)

It's on a g plate so 89/90. Will need to use the 309 subframe aswell?

you dont have to change the subframe. The gearlever pivot arm position is different but I forget whether its easier to change the subframe or convert the tu one.

its easier to swap the subframe over, just unbolts, and bolt the new one on... no faffing around with cutting, and welding
