   How easy is a vts conversion from Vtr single plug?
   Is there any problems people have come across?

   Straight forward, providing you use a single plug engine, loom and ECU.

   Yep it'll plug straight in. You will need a vts engine loom and decoded ecu.

   Full service inc cambelt and water pump, no point in doing headgasket no harder to do one when the engine is fitted so might aswell do it when its needed
   
   No real common faults, every engine is different so if it doesn't start it could be a while host of things if I had to pick one is say make sure every earth has a good connection
