    It isn't too much of a big deal if you have a donor vehicle and can swap everything out. Apart from the body control module, but you can get a memcal that will fix that.

    Probably not, if its an S1 VN. I think you have to have a 30mm or so spacer made up for the flywheel as the crank on the s1vn is 30mm longer. Might be 30mm shorter though, I cant remember exactly.
