Best to contact a vass engineer and ask them. Everyone is different, but Id budget for between 2 and 3k.

You'll spend over $1000 just with the engineer alone. Like I said I've spent 10 doing 100% of the work myself, to do it in under 5 would be tricky especially as you're using a different motor to what anyone else has. However if your engineer is happy with your current brakes, suspension, wheels, tyres, fuel system and interior saftey features you could save yourself some money.

What are the specs of your current car?


Yep I think I would be happy to pay under $2500 to get it engineered.
I still need to get the requirements for upgrades to be inline with the motor, but I would say disc brakes, electric fuel pump, body bracing would be a good start.

But I guess it would be less of a head ache to just drop in a tickled 1100.
