Hi there guys! I'm doing a little visit here from Sweden so please go easy on me! B)

I've just purchased a Lupo 1.4 75bhp ´99 manuall tranny, with a broken engine. It seems like the oilpump just stoped working, since the previous owner lost the oilpressure. But the schmuck kept on driving... He just filled a litre of oil and started it up again! He got about 4km before it had so much internal resitence that he had to shift it down to 1:st gear, and then he turned of the engine! :o

But anyways, I assume that this engines cylindersleeves is fukked, and that I need to replace the entire engine...

My question is, what kind of engine can I buy and put in without making any bigger modifications? I can buy a 1.4 75bhp engine from a bloke around the corner, but it would be a lot more fun with a GTi or a sport engine instead... because GTi and sport is not the same engine right?

And does any other cars, like seat or skoda, uses this 1.4 75bhp engine? Whats the three letter code for this engine?

I'd be very thankful for a quick reply since the person with the working engine demands an answere from me ASAP! :(

Regards,

Anders.
