Got an old discovery now.
My block which I got off Niles has has its block ground away in the sump area to accommodate a 4WD setup. NILES said the old owner of the block gave up on the idea. Might be an idea to pm Niles to see if he remembers who it was.

maybe better getting a v70 r awd drive then
there's a guy on t5d5 who has converted his 850R saloon to awd i read a thread about it. can't remember his name but i'm sure he also had a 340 t5.
It would be easier to get a V70R awd and swap all the front panels to make it look like an 850.

There is a v50 T5 awd manual on eBay and there as rare as rocking horse poo

I wouldn't bother, once the angle gear goes south you will be back to two wheel drive.
1996 850 T5 AWD - Self tuned M4.4 ECU with COP`s, B5254T ( S60R internals in a 850 block ) ostrich 2.0 , VXR injectors @ 3.8 bar, K24 turbo with a 6+6 compressor wheel, 3.25" MAF, top mounted Dump Valve, RN Exhaust manifold, 3" downpipe with 200 cell cat, 2.75" Stainless exhaust, Brembo calipers, S60R brake discs, stainless RIP kit, 3" Throttle body,
There was a thread somewhere in which someone did it (as stated above) but its a massive job as the rear suspension on an AWD is completely different and requires fabrication of the mountings, then theres all the bits you need like fuel tank, exhaust awd system parts, brake system, steering rack, etc.
Ah, found the thread, on Turbobricks

Easier to start with an awd and transfer the T5 stuff to that, i have been asked by a customer if i would do one for him so i'm just looking into it now.
The cost of converting would be far more than buying an XC70 or V70R...
A T5 ecu wont work as the ignition and fuelling would be different, it might run but not very well.
The 2.5 LPT is really held back by the ecu (turbo is usually a 13G on early LPTs and uses red injectors). A remap will push it to around 235bhp (assuming everything else is working). Alternatively you can fit a 16T, white injectors, filter, exhaust and remap that should see around 270-280, only problem being finding someone to map it.
The only other thing to do is bang a T5 engine and ecu in it.
