andy have yyou sold this?
or are you going to break it?
haven't seen any other engines that would be a decent conversion, but then again don't have the the engine knowledge that you have.
let us know about the golf or any other engines that you know of.
hoping to sort the breaks out within the next 2 weeks. so hopefully be ready to drop the air cooled and get the bay water cooled. Grin

cheers neil ( scunny)

what condition is it in? what sort of miles has it got?
would this require a hole cut into the engine bay, not that thats a problem.
is it streight from the donar car or has it been in a converrsion already?
what would fitting it entail, parts needed?

would love to get something sorted and get the bugger going.
cheers neil
