How much needs swapping to fit a non-DBW engine to a DBW car - ie, 3.0 into a 2.6? Is it a case of pedals, ECU, and not a lot more.. or is it far more complex?

Well I was lucky - the engine survived the cam jumping.

However I do have a leaking HG now :-[ :-[

I will sort that in a week or so.

Worst case will be 3.0 DBWed

Is it the 135 leaking Martin? Through the temporary re-use of gasket/bolts?

Where abouts is it leaking?

Into the waterway

Pretty sure reuse of bits

Got the gasket, bolts on the way.

Getting peed off with stripping it now, last car I had to remove heads from used to take 30 minutes from switch off to head off.

Hi Robsey i am new on here i notice you have a couple of 2.6 engines for sale, how much do you want for 1 of them?
I have bought my 3rd facelift Omega this week but this one has a major issue, when i turn the engine over by hand it completely locks up.

Thanks
