416exmx has one for sale still I think. Its the one in the conversion thread that Jumbo747 posted for you. PM him. Buying one already done will be WAY cheaper than doing it yourself. ;)

Yeah you need to mount a radiator or a cooling system of a high strength. Your going to have to custom make an oil reservoir, and your gonan need some new motor mounts.
