It should be mostly wrenching. Since it's an SD engine, you'll already have the proper oil filter housing. You will need to source engine support arms and oil pan from a 115/116 617 due to the different subframe configuration. You may be able to mill the waffle reinforcing off you current pan to clear.


If I think of something else I'll add it later.
