ye i saw a BATTERED cat D for sale yesterday and the engine does sit slightly at an angle. also when you did bens convo is there LOADS of space at the back of the engine like you can get your hand in there WITHOUT any hassle (compared to your old engine and mine?)

what do you i should pay for the engine kells?

also when i pop down dews im gonna link your A$$ up!! :grin:
i even got my cousine (with the 16v) to check this site out and his always on about your mk3 and says its just "UNIQUE & MINT!!!"

Thier is loads of space at the black of the engine mate - loads

as for a price, it would depend what the spec of said engine is in and miles on it etc

We bought a full car for Bens conversion, a Highline with black leathers, leather doorcards, black ABC pillars etc, he paid £400 for it and obviously the interior is worth £250/£300 with the door cards then theirs all the other bits, pl;us he had the clocks, look, g/box etc

so procewise that would be my limit for a VR and id want everyhting fpr that price (clocks,loom.gbox etc)  only new bits you wanna be buying are the engine mounts and service parts

would be nice to meet you, its also nice to hear your cousin likes my car, tell him thanks  :wink:

will the g60 wiring loom fit the vr6 2.9 corrado engine? :undecided:

Nope, Vr loom needed


Also will i need the cross member?

Yes the VR crossmember is different, I believe an 8V will fit however.

Also knowing the chains have been replaced is vital, as it is not cheap to sort.
