Cheaper to install?
more plentiful?
easier to install?
cheaper insurance?
greater fuel economy?
1.8 16V is better than 1.8 8V on the good things and 8V is better on the boring things (but then the 1.3 carb is better on them boring things too).
There's plenty of posts on 16V conversions, and plenty on 1.3 –> 1.8 8V too. All a bit vague though, until you get stuck in, come across a problem and need specific details, then you can search on specifics or pose a qn etc if you can't find.

The Mk1 Golf doesn't have a subframe. The 16V has the same bolt holes to allow the same engine mounts to be used, though.
