The Kia Magentis 2 litre is a similar engine (but with no VIS I believe).

It's a direct fit, apparently. See: https://the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/s....php?p=2594166

Modification kit reqd as per excerpt from TCut's link

"LKB000120 was fitted to the America / Canada / Mexico models, as the emissions regulations were different. It was a fly-by-wire throttle control system, hence the slightly different throttle body mounting flange.

We used to stock LKB108021 until supplies ran out last year, then got a limited supply of LKB000120 supplied as a kit needing modification to fit to our cars."

Dear Stocktake,
Thank you for the advice. The link on TCut's reply. Has have you got some advice/pictures of how to do the conversion? Or know where I can get them?
Take care and I hope you are enjoying the sunshine in Leeds! It has finally stopped raining up here in Richmond!! Are up still doing the Viz motors upgrades??
I look forward to hearing from you and very best wishes
Bob
