mk3 engine swap
Do the engine brackets need to be changed to fit in a mk3 engine into a mk1? What else needs to be changed and were the mk3 golfs made in 1.9 tdi?

the mk1 engine mounts bolt on to the mk3 engines, mk3's had 1.9 tdi's from 1994, if you are planing on fitting one to a mk1 you will need to fabricate a down pipe due to the exhaust manifold outlet being in a different position to a mk1. it can and has been done though.

good friends of mine, but i've not seen a good exhaust come out of there! cheap wheels and tyres though.
