Laguna V6 ask Gentle Ben 
Megane 225 will go in, it's basically the same as the clio 172/182 F4R engine, which is derived from the F7R (so same mounting holes/lugs etc.) which in turn is basically the same as the standard F7P. Electrics is the biggest hassle there. |

Speakin of electronics, I dont know why everyone is so strict about ECU's. I have a 1995 clio 16v engine in my k reg 19 with the original ECU. Havent had any probs as yet. Was warned if I didnt get the exact ECU it would eventually knacker everything. |

There is a blue clio shooting round essex with a 5gtt engine in it, He was down a127 couple weeks ago. It was either that or a conversion, didnt sound like the f16. |
