Hello new here, I have a mk1 caddy and I have been told you guys have all the knowledge on engine swaps, my caddy is a completely stripped down shell now it came with no engine or engine loom, it's down as a diesel on the paperwork, I'm looking to put the 2.0 abf on twin 45 dellorto carbs, but I have been looking everywere for information on what I need to start from scratch, a list of things I need and what gearbox I need from what car, engine mounts? Basically everything I need to get to have the engine in and running, thanks guys
