modern day cab
as this site seems to be the fountain of all knowledge i would be really interested in your views on a possible project….my1984 1600 auto cab
(love …hate relationship) is ok,but id like something with a bit more oomph,more up to date but defenitely not boy racer, and keeping it auto.
what engine and box can i use,whats involved etc.
thanks all

20vt
im going with a 20v turbo engine which is as good as it gets depending on which one you get cost is always an issue all depends on how much cash you have
i can do the 20v turbo conversion for ?4000 which is cheap when you look at tsr and other places
or 16 valve which can be made to be quick do that for about ?1300

You also got to change the mk3 flywheel to suit what ever gearbox your using plus you'II have to get a spacer ring made to fit your mk1 dizzy to the mk3 block.
