Mk 3 2L 8v in a Mk 1?

[VWKD]

HI all -
Im asking this on behalf of a mate without a computer: he currently has a 1970 VW camper (bay) running a 1.8 K-jet 8 valve from a scirooco/golf mk 1 - its just blown the head gasket.  As a replacement he has been offered a cheap/free 2ltr 8valve from a mk 3 and wants to fit this.

Ignoring the fact that this engine is in a VW camper he is essentially going to be switching the Mk 1 Gti k-jet with a Mk 3 digifant 8v. Has anyone undertaken this swop?

The most important difference is obviously the ECU / engine loom - is there a wiring diagram out there anywhere showing which wires to use etc - even a standard gti mk 3 diagram would be a start.

Ideally does anyone know anyone who has done a similar swop - i imagine its fairly old school by todays standards but someone must have done it somewhere. Will he also need to upgrade to the later fuel pump? or will the delivery of the mk1 pump be adequate?

Any info, links or contacts would be gratefully received.

Cheers

Or has no-one done this swap before

You should be able to just put the head from the 1.8 engine onto the 2 litre engine and drop it straight in...

Could also post this in the garage section.
