Awalys a pleasure...

Do a search for S50 engine swaps. The engine code of the 3 litre is S50B30 and the 3.2 is the S50B32. That should help you find what you are looking for.

Buster, Dameon (old_skool), Ian332isport, Uwe and myself (to mention a few) have all posted a lot of information.

Ian is the wiring guru, and a really helpful and approachable guy. Old_skool 's threads on S50 swaps are very detailed. My thread is fairly recent as I've just finished the conversion, and I basically nicked all the best bits of other peoples ideas (that suited my parts/needs).

Hope that helps. Good luck.
