Hey up. I've got a 1.3 cl and I've had a 1.8 big block carb engine in my garage for a while. The 1.3 is sounding abit tired now so i think its time t swap it. Other then move the engine mount on the drivers side. I wonder if i could get some advice on what i need to do, the engine code is GU its from a scirocco. I think it was used in Jetta and mk2 golfs also. I haven't got a box with it, so i was wondering what gearbox would fit.

Thanks Dave.

Most likely any 020 box… They fit the 1.8 injection engines and have the same bolt pattern as the 02a and 02j(hydraulic clutch) … I'm not certain of this however… Maybe measure the distance between the gearbox bolt holes…

AS stated, youll need the g/box, 5 speed linkage, g/box mounting, driveshafts?? clutch cable?? and possibly the steering rack as it has the mounting for the gear change linkage.
