pretty sure the bottom end is fully compatible...phase 1.5 heads and ancillaries may fit but thats only if the loom is compatible. i do know phase 2 onward engines you will be limited to using the bottom end unless you go for a rewire too

Go for it Tom. No need to sell after it's fixed like loads have said. Might as well enjoy it for a while longer.
