What was the final price on the kit with everything supplied (including the modified items that have to be sourced)? And how long will it take to supply? Also will it mount up to the s6 box and in it's current position?

The transmission stays in its factory location, no mods needed. With you being in australia, would you need a RHD steering rack? Because I'm not sure it would easy for us to get one of those. And would you need a 20b lower intake manifold and oil pan core too? What is your timeframe? It might be cheaper for you to send us your parts.

Weird, they're still not working for me. I am at work however, so maybe the pictures are being blocked by the firewall or something. Sorry for the confusion. I'll have to check the thread at home 
I though I remembered asking this question, but I don't see the response or remember what you said, so here goes again (sorry):
If the tranny and the steering rack stay in the factory location, how does the motor clear? Does it sit higher than stock, or at an angle, or is it just a reworked oil pan that allows it to fit? I assume that it sits higher, because you mention UIM/hood clearance issues.
Thanks!

.Haha, seriously that is one nice ride you have. A 20b conversion would finish it off and make it priceless!

20B rebuild kits do not cost 4k...they cost about 2K. Unless your talking about replacing multiple housings and irons....
depends on what all you do I guess. If you buy a 20b, the average price has been about 4k, end up rebuilding, porting, probley drop another 4k+, this kit 3k, depending on what ecu you go with you could spend upwards of 3k+, figure most if not going with a NA end up spending 4k+ on a larger single, etc, etc and it starts adding up quick. Not to mention if you someone who will have to have someone else do the labor you could look at another couple of grand there at least.
