1. mk3 TDI 1Z - keeping the diesel theme but worried about the fly by wire mods required etc
2. g60 eaton m62 - probably the least about of modding?
3. 1.8t (aum or auk) - the 1.8t is more of a wildcard just because there seem to be a lot of good engines out there.
needless to say going from 50bhp to one of these engines will need the brakes & suspension looking at. each of these i would guess would need their own gearbox.
any thoughts welcomed, i am pretty novice at engine changes so any thoughts on who could carry out the engine swop as well without butchering the car & looms would be great. located in surrey.
cheers.
1980 Series 1 GTI (gone now .. what a mistake selling her!)
1979 Series 1 LD - the Mandarin Dragon … gone as well. oh dear.

- 1978 MK1 GL 2 door with 2.0 16v ABF, twin 40's, Recaros, lots of suspension mods. I'll get it back on the road one day.
- 1991 MK2 GTI 4 door. Was my daily doing over 1000 ks a week until it hit a truck. RIP. Got another one now and loving it!
- 1991 MK2 GTI 4 door for parts.
- 1998 Seat Cupra + another used as a donor for the MK1
- 1999 Passat Wagon. Needs street cred but at least it's a manual.
