Engine swapping

Postby meekster2001 on Tue Apr 23, 2002 11:30 pm

Ive had enough of my s**t, tinny fez 1.1 hamster wheel of an engine and was considering putting in a 1.6s engine from an early mk3, or a 1.4s engine from a late mk2. Does anyone know if any of these are possible and what is involved? Cheers.
