KR 16v engine conversion

Post

Back to the top
I will be attempting a kr conversion with my 89' s2 clipper cabby  this summer, but before I do I wanted to know if anyone can provide me the job lot of the following:

Complete 16v engine, including block, pistons, crankshaft, head, inlet manifold (both parts), throttle body & switch, oil filter housing & oil cooler, oil pressure and temperature sensors, water pipes, top and bottom cam belt covers, left hand engine mount, idle stabilization valve, cold start valve, injector and mounting bracket, injectors and fuel lines to injectors, crank case breather pipes, over-run shut-off valve, gearbox, starter motor, ECU, alternator, distributor.

I've seen job lots on ebay around the £600 mark but you can't trust some of them as they hae been removed from write-off's.

I'm hoping there is a trusty person in the club that can sell me it. I'm on a tight budget so be nice!

If theres anything I've missed let me know :$….

I have a kr that was fitted in my mk1 which i am about to put up for sale. I removed the head which was skimmed new valve stem oil seals, cam chain , cambelt and tensioner and all valves relapped .New head gasket and bolts .comes with both cambelt covers which were carefully modded to clear the mk1 mount.

A few of the conversion bits I sold  but it does come with alternator, metering head  ,inlet manifold , throttle body , mk1 gti oil filter housing with external oil cooler,cranck case pipework. 8v clutch and flywheel, starter motor .The metering head was set up by a ex tsr  employee and had the warm up reg modded.

The engine came from a friend of  friends  mk2 which was re ended and written off ,it has done about 125k and was always run on synta and genuine filters .
  I also have a rebuilt 8v box which could be sold with it.I don't have many posts but have been on this site from when it was the campaign register .
It was removed for a 20v conversion and I had kept hold of it for another project but plans change.
Pm me if you are interested and I can give you more info.
