I'm not going into detail on it as when I did my LET I'm sure plenty of things have changed or been advised (5years ago), but what I would say to you is don't do it on the cheap, you could easily ditch the project once a few things go wrong and would be a total waste.

You can do it cheap if you cut lots of corners mate. My advice is DON'T cut corners and build it proper.
A lot of people on here say you need deep pockets once its built as they are unreliable. That's bollox in my eyes. If its done right in the first place and looked after it wont brake. Mines never missed a beat in 2 years and still going strong.
I built mine on a 1.0 model. You'll need all the conversion kit + new bearings ect & Strengthening plates. Also rebuild the engine if its tired. Its not a hard conversion. Just take your time and get it right.
