First of all is it worth it?I mean am I gonna see any difference at throttle-speed?
I dont wanna spend much money,my father knows how to cut and weld,so mounts and others arent any problem.I also wanna put everything in the mk1 from the mk3,like interior,ac,seats etc.
Any advice is helpful
Thank you

Personally, the Mk3 appears to be in great shape and I would hate to see it become a donor… but, like all things in life, do what makes you happy.
…On the other hand, I have heard lovely things about a VR6 sitting in an A1.
Loads of information out there for this swap, as it is quite common. (Vortex, E38, etc.).
There are also conversion kits that allegedly simplify the process: https://shop.eurowise.com/product-p/ew1090.htm
Best of luck, and if you do proceed with the swap, start a build thread so we can cheer you on.

Fausto glad to be here my friend
The mk3 is in great shape and fully running and I would hate that too,seeing her go as a donor
But I hate leaving my mk1 rusting and not using it,so Im in a dilema,what should I do?
I dont want to use the eurowise kit as I dont have much money,so if Im gonna do it is going to be by my father and me,cutting,welding and stuff
I think the only part that we will find difficult is wiring,so Ill probably pay money on that
I have time to think about as Im not ready yet to start
Thank you for your reply
