Only my opinion but i think 2 ltr 16v power is perfect for the mk1, 150 bhp is easily obtainable plus more,
Thanks for the reply is it an easy conversion?

My New Year's resolutions are: 1. Stop making lists. B. Be more consistent. 7. Learn to count.

Try this link…… The Mk1 Golf Owners Club
It may help you decide. I think a lot of it comes down to ££ and what you want from the car power wise.
Hope this helps

The mk1 1.8 gti box would be easiest, the mk2 16v not too hard, the 02a which is the box the abf comes with but more work to fit. How ever my choice would be the mk3 8v gti box, it has a decent ratio 5th, 22/23 mph per 1000 revs, is rod change so easy fitment and there happens to be one for sale over on club gti, nothing to do with me.
That's mate for the reply I don't suppose you know the code of the 8v gearbox
