Hi, i am converting my 306 to a V6, anyone done one and got any pictures of the build. Also what kind of modification work am i looking at. I know shafts need shortening and a new mount for the engine. Much else? How hard of a job is it?Thanks ________________________________________ Team V6 |

Just my 2p but it's really not that worth doing....have you not looked at the supercharging/ throttle body route? I was obsessed by the idea some time ago but in hindsight, the above two options are the better ones. ________________________________________ "Rules are for the interpretation of wisemen and the obedience of fools" (Colin Chapman, Lotus founder) |

Come across a few problems, do i need different hubs because the cv joints are bigger and catch the abs sensors. Also would a 406 subframe fit, its been cut but engine needs to go back further and will lose strength if i cut more. Any help would be appreciated.________________________________________ Team V6 |

 Well its still on going, hoping to have sorted the wiring around christmas time, probably the hardest bit left to do. Engine almost in just got to cut some more off the subframe and wait for the top mount to arrive then just a few awkward bits left to do.  ________________________________________ Team V6 |

getting there  who's making the top mount for you? how much clearance is there to the PAS pump and the Alternator? looks like you've cut the front crossmember off as well? ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

Its tight but enough. Done the cambelt while its out, going to be awkward next change. Yeah had to cut the crossmember to get it to fit in. Got a 406 rad for it aswel, otherwise the 306 rad would need plumbing in. Got a mint one for 35 so not bad. Getting a mate of a mate to fabricate the mount. Autodata want 650 quid for the dvd with wiring diagrams on. So found a few bits on the 205 site.Just want to drive it now. Lol. ________________________________________ Team V6 |

Happy Birthday fella By the way the cambelt intervals on these engines are 100k, but you have to change the rollers and tensioner and pump. Doubt you'll have to do it again in a hurry  Will pick up loads of parts tomorrow if the snow buggers off. Should have everything to complete the project  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
