give it a try, if it feels soggy with the extra weight up front then its time to upgrade.

ha ha if you can't take a bumper off how you gonna take an engine out!!! :laugh:

but yeah two bolts either side, engine wont fall as its held in on the cross member which is held on by the two outer bolts by the bumper bolts. don't go drving with no bumper though, as they do help hold it all together.

Rob i came across a new guy setting up a garage for VW's last night. He does any conversion you want and knows his stuff. He drives a vr6 mk2 that he did himself so im sure he can help if you get stuck. He is based opposite the shops at Port Clarence. Rough i know but closer than most other garages. Ive got his number if you wanna give him a ring.
