« on: 07 September 2003, 07:58 »
looking at doing a conversion in my mk1, but i am hearing loads of different opionions of different engines.
what would you guys fit? i'm mainly building this car to race on santa pod and the like so fast acceleration is what i am looking for, not top speed or drivability.
what engine and where can i get my hands on a good second hand one? 1.8 8v or 16v or 2L 8v or 16v? ???

The best engine will be the 2L 16v 9A unit. You should be able to get these from TSR and C&R etc.. look up the links on this site. Be prepared to fork out loads of bucks  ;)
