which car do i need please

Hi all im thinking of doing a ABF 20.L engine transplant but Here's my  question . Which MK3 had the 20.L ABF .
 Engine fitted and apart from the engine do i need anything but the engine .  :dontknow:  Any help here would be  great as this is new ground for me . As mk1 and mk2 S are were im happy . Any help ill be very thankful  :read:

The ABF came in the mk3 golf gti 16v


Id also look into 9a (2.0 16v) or even 6a (2.0 16v) engines


What model mk1 are you converting (engine size)?

Thanks for that im changing from a dx 1.8 8v gti . :dontknow:

Take a look at this if you havent already its a really good read for the 16v conversion:

What you need depends on what set up you want to run, im putting a 2.0 16v in my mk1 but im using the original kjet system for fuelling and the original 8v gearbox so all I needed was the engine, the engine ecu / ignition module and wiring loom,mk2 golf 16v throttle cable ,16v conversion exhaust manifold and to fit the 8v clutch flywheel to the 16v engine so that the gearbox goes on.

Cheers das-autos ive just had a good read . I l will have to read it all again as there is a lot to take in . But here s the thing my day to day car is a golf mk2 1991 gti 16v with air con . Hazards on the top of steering  wheel . So do i use this for my  engine change  :dontknow:  anyone thoughts welcome on this . also haw do i find out the engine code on the mk 2 . Would it be the right engine to change . Thanks to all and any more tips or help would be great ta  :read:  :read:

Also did all mk3 golf gti s  have the 2.0l ABF engine in or just a few of them . Because  if i pull the 16v out for my mk2
I would put a 2.0l ABF  engine in the mk2 golf shell mybe  :angel:

only mk3 golf gti 16v had the abf. the normal gti was 8v. you can get the abf is seat cordoba, toledo and ibiza but mkae sure its 2.0 16v not 1.8.

the SEAT ADL 1.8 looks similar to an abf as the engine managment is nearly the same, but underneath its still just a kr lump

Thanks again rubjonny you have helped again
