VS Statesman 5 ltr in a V8 VK

[MsVK5ltr]

Hey guys, i am new here, and my fiancee and i are wondering how hard is it to put an Efi 5ltr into our V8 VK?

We have a chance to buy a running crashed VS statesman, and wondering if anyone has done this conversion, and how difficult it is.
We don't want to bite off more than we can chew!

Thanks heaps.

sounds very nice! i never done it myself but should all fit! any damage to the k-frame? would be totaly worth the effort! if ya decide against it il buy the stato and do it myself :P

hardest part would be the loom/wiring, other than that pacemaker make headers for 700 bucks to suit EFI in a VK. you will need to setup a fuel return line to the fuel tank and a high pressure pump, not sure about transmissions though pretty sure that will be plug and play though also, but the speedo might be an issue. just need to sort out a tailshaft and your away.
