Hi Guys,

I currently run a 1641cc in an '69 bay, with a 1600 Box, I need to take the engine out and sort some issues, I've got my hands on a Type 4 2.0L thats ready to go.

I need to know what I need to do/change for it to go into the bay?

I need to do the swap this weekend so any advice is greatly appreciated.

FC.

you selling the 1641 barrells & pistons?? :D interested if you are :D :D

Stoooopid question but when you say engine mounts you mean the mounts the support bar bolts onto?

The 2.0L is only a loaner while I sort my 1641 out, altho if I like it I might make the guy an offer to keep it, and then the 1641 will be up for grabs... :)

Engine bay surround will have to be cut about and engine bar will need modifying and probably chassis.A lot of messing if it's just a loner while 1641 is sorted
