what head and manifolds did you use?
and did you have to adapt them to fit thanks

mk1 manifolds usally a mk2 head ( for hydralic tappets ) if useing a bubbel block or mk3 bottom end when just doing a 1.8 - 2.0 conversion

or if doing a non gti mk1 to 2.0  tend to use what bits are avalible at the time or are withing budget  usally mk1 manifolds tho on ether mk1 or mk2 head

Does It have to be a 8v head as my block is a 8v
