In my opinion for the cost of them your best buying new ones mate, standard 8valve gti ones fit no problem, but I believe you'll have to move the drivers side bracket up the chassis leg (cut off an reweld).

Depends what gearbox your using? If your running a o2o box then you can use all stock mounts, on the driver side engine mount you can use a big block 8v mount.

justcaddys on ebay sell 02j cable change mounts if you go that way, buy the 20v set of three & sell the cam belt side 20v mount back on as you need a 8v big block cambelt side mount for the ABF,..Using your 1.1/1.3 mounting bracket off the chassis leg is ok but the slotted part of the bracket will sit at a angle instead of being parallel…..cheaper option tho,.. would advise to fit cable box, 020 box on a ABF don't last long plus you have to spend a small fortune on a clutch,….vr6 clutch/flywheel etc are two apenny or a sach's uprated one for an ABF,…Only down side is if using volkswagon donor  VW abf gearbox is hydraulic clutch so you need a SEAT cable mech & cut down your 1.3 cable to suit.

:thumbs: plus cablebox is stronger, less gearchanges & great for a 5th gear conversion   160mph+
