Smeg760 Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 I was just wondering if any one knew the distance between the two front bolts " width " on the Lupo front subframe ? Say compared to a mk4 golf . Got a bog standard yellow 1.0L pupo and want to stick something more awkward than a polo gti engine in there.

Rich Posted August 8, 2017 Report Share Posted August 8, 2017 what's the sub frame got to do with the engine? you're failing before you begin here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cj1 Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 What Rich said. Plus if you rely on the information from a forum you'll be failing when you begin too. The car is there, measure it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smeg760 Posted August 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Yeah your right the no probs the ones in the scrappy don't have wheels, just was looking at some polo vr6 project on retro rides and he chopped the hell out of the subframe that's all I was curious as to wether you can graft a bit of the proper sub frame in that's all really.

Ive done a couple of engine swaps and know my stuff but other people's opinions always come in handy " really fancy doing the v5 conversion , a little different and could be perfect for the loops.
