I think you are going to have some issues installing this motor WITH the crossover.Better that you leave it off, and fit it after installation of the engine. The subframe will give you trouble, certainly.. There may be other problems; trans cooling lines were already mentioned.
I wish you the best of luck with the continuance of your wonderful project!

Thanks Dale, yep it's all looking really good just hope it runs as good as it looks when I first start it up Engine bay all painted and looks better than new, front suspension all sorted with new bits, powder coated parts and poly bushings etc. And engine looking better than when it left the factory with good beefed up internals

Got engine complete in the engine stand with the IC and everything on it for a photos shoot before I strip off some of the stuff (including the crossover pipe) to drop it in place in my TTA (been two years in June ...).

I'll post some more pictures during the weekend.
