Hi Chris, the 1905 XUD engine will go straight in no problem, although you will need to sort out the exhaust and engine electrics. The problem you will have is the intercooler, which sits on top of the engine in 405. I dont think this will fit, so you will need to change the bonnet to an automatic one with the bulge in at least to get it under, or relocate the intercooler if you can find room. Depending on the age of your 205 and donar engine you may need to make some minor changes to the fuel filter and brake servo systems. I recall some rally conversions to this format which were very sucessfull in the amateur challenges.
