       300tdi into a 109 Ser III LHD?

       Hello again,
       My rebuild has hit a wall with my 2.5 NA cracking a head and
       requiring a complete rebuild.
       This got me thinking, instead of forking the cash to do a
       complete rebuild of my 2.5 NA why not spend a bit more and drop
       in a 300tdi? (200tdi's are not available in Turkey)
       I did a quick google search and only found results for a RHD
       transplant. obviously with my 109 being LHD I need some info
       from someone who has done it on a LHD.
       Any help is much appreciated.

       I "think" there are clearance issues with the steering box.....

       Steve Parkers do a conversion exhaust for 300Tdi into LHD series
       with a note power steering must be fitted, so what you're
       suggesting should work. I'm interested to know more as I have a
       LHD 109" I'm converting to Tdi. I have a good 200 engine but
       that could be used elsewhere, I'm considering the 300 route and
       have a P38 LHD PAS box on its way from the USA. I'd just like to
       see photos of a converted vehicle to get an idea.
