So it starts. I have both machines ready to morf into 1 epic hyper caddy. This is going to be a massive learning curve for myself and I’m looking forward to the build and many headaches to come.

Brilliant!
Looks like we’re both doing the exact same conversion
Looking forward to seeing your progress and the finished conversion.

Brilliant, would be great to share experiences, etc!
I’m still waiting on my Audi being delivered
There are a few guys on here that have also went down the V6 route that are more than happy to help as well.
Best forum for advice, guidance and everything Caddy

Just a quick question regarding wiring, are there any recommendations of a person or company to wire the 3.2 into the caddy?

The donor car is running great , I haven’t had a chance to plug the vcds in as yet, I’ll do it today at some point.
Superb this part of the build was really worrying me. Where are you based?

How hard is this conversion then? Is it simply a case of mounting the engine and ancillaries and transplanting the loom and clocks etc before clearing codes? That sounds too easy?
