mate don't bother either buy an au or late EL or if you have your heart set on a ED just get a hybrid EL motor and chuck in ya ED use the ED manifold and computer and it will be good enough or if you want. get an el/ef dash coplete with looms and all get a el hybrid motor and ecu put the dash in then put the motor in and then the ecu should be a basic put in and go thing but the dash may be tricky.
