Why haven't you swap for the 1.7 Turbo from 400 series?

thats not a 16 Valve engine

PS the inlet manifold of the 16V beast looks like you could fit a throttle body to the front side of it. That way you could fit the blower housing back in (nice for MOT etc)

i am using the complete injection system for the renault engine i have modified a 1979 mini van fuel tank which will be in the boot of the car, the fuel pump is from a volvo940 turbo.
i did think of using a 480 turbo engine but i wanted 16v so i have gone for the renault.
the turbo conversion if for a later date once i am board of the power and want more.
