I have the alternator and as far as i know i need the water pump pully? (Unless i have to change it to a el ef one) the harmonic balancer, tensioner, and power steering pump am i forgetting anything or do i have to chance my A/C unit too?

Yes, you will need an EF/EL A/C pump, and an EF/EL harmonic balancer.
What inlet manifold are you going to use, as this will dictate what sort of tensioner and belt you need. Cheers BenJ

well im running VCT off an au also i have the VCT belt
i think the only parts i need are the P/S pump, A/C compressor, tensioner, harmonic balancer and i have the alternator on its way any one have an A/C compressor in good nick as mine is perfect and just been regassed  so im up for a regas, a harmonic balancer, tensioner and P/S pump? cheap ? what sort of money am i looking at to convert? or is it better to get a new compressor?

dont forget the ef/el water pump..
also if your going serpentine set up? the powersteering pump bracket for vct is different to the others, as it has the extra idler pulley mounted to the front of it so the belt clears the vct unit..... |

so all up you will need..
ef-au power steer pump,au vct powersteer bracket with idler pulley. ef-au water pump. ef/el radiator(as the lower rad hose size is different)+coolant bottle hose and thermo fans. ef/el harmonic balancer. ef-au serpentine tensioner with pullies and bolts. ef/el alternator and bracket. ef/el aircon compressor and bolts oh and au vct belt.. |

i was reading some where in (after hours of using the search function) that either the ef or it was the el was the better harmonic balancer?

also isn't the water pipe that goes around the back of the head a different diameter from the ea eb ed to the el ef? can anyone confirm?

Gotto ask for the hassell of doing this conversion and i did one years ago, but now as i have had a later model car thus a better motor in my opinion wouldnt it be better just to upgrade that motor as well, I would not waste my time if i had to do it again i would go straight to either a EF motor or the AU motor as i have done now in my EF and it would probably be faster to do it as well.

dont quote me but i think it the same diameter. You only change that pipe if you changing inlet mainifold,as location is different on inlet manifold.

Seems like a lot of time and expense for maybe a couple of KW. I would throw in a newer motor and be done with it if you really want it. Motors can be had quite cheap these days. I recently replaced my harmonic balancer and idler tensioner and that was enough of a pain in the a** on its own. If you have spare time and $$ and really want to do it go for it!

Oh, and you also need an EF/EL radiator as the lower outlet is smaller to match the EF/EL water pump.
