as long as you have the complete engine loom with the engine you're going to use, you should be fine.

Don't forget the starter motor bracket from the 960.
They're made of unobtanium!!

Aren't you also on VOC?
Isn't this little lot going in a 3 door shell??

Are you sticking it in the back of the car or front? If in the front you will need an appropriate gearbox and adaptor.
A lot of time, and be prepared to spend out on quite a few things (prop shaft, rear diff complete with subframes, rear suspension, drive shafts and wheel hubs etc).

i have a complete 960 with the m90 box. the prop can be sorted quite easily and i will use the rear end off my sierra. just trying to work out exactly what i need off each car so the rest can go.

as long as i don't need to modify the car too much it should be ok.
