"Theoretically" they will speak to a T4 but it's a wee bit hit and miss, some don't, some like mine will after being battered into submission!
Re the Ford engine, there's an additional ECU (Gateway ECU) which connects the Ford engine with the rest of the electrics. |

I would check the timing! You can time these up 180 deg out and they will still run.

The 75 V8s were auto but the 260s were manual. That's not to say there isn't a 260 or two going around with the autobox from a 75 in it . . . . haven't heard of any though.

My car is IAP Nocturne Special metallic and looks completely different to that V8 of DMGR's.

I believe it lives in the land down under Dawn, I seem to recall someone (Maybe Wyn) Had an unfinished auto v8 zt, although I might be imagining it as it was many years ago now..
