    Hey everyone.

    Finally getting around to finishing my 79 capri with an SVO swap. I figured a document some things on YouTube and will post the link below. Feel free to check it out. And if its not allowed, remove as needed. But. Here is the skinny and what im looking to make right. If anyone has any insight or tips, im all ears ..

    Swapped in 1986 svo powertrain (no svo dash harness) pe computer and harness is stand alone

    -I need to wire up the premium fuel switch
    -Get the fans to be controlled by the computer
    -Im having a hard time getting a nice engaging clutch pedal (new clutch,dogbone delete, 3 hook quadrant and adj)
    -Redo fuel system
    - swap in good injectors

    Did you swap the SVO WC trans as well, I as because same have said that there can be issues if you try to use a regular 5.0 clutch cable/cam with the SVO stuff. For the other stuff I am no real help as I stepped of the edge with my SVO build and straying away from the factory issues/fixes.

    Yes I use the world-class trans and I seem to have sorted the clutch issue. I found good results in pulling apart the clutch fork mechanism cleaning and greasing everything. The pedal is a little harder than I was hoping for but grabs great and has smooth engagement
