I have a Golf Mk2 1.6 8v carb engine (found in Driver and CL models) that i want to put into my lupo (1.4 16v E) as i have spent a lot of money on the golf engine and it putting out an estimated 130BHP. Also the piston rings have pretty much gone now on the lupo engine and i don't think it worth fixing.

Does anybody know if the Gear Box off the lupo will fit onto the golf engine and how to go about wiring in rev counter ect?

I know i will need to make engine mounts specially for the conversion and have all the necessary equipment to do so.

I don't want to put the golf gear box on as the gear linkages are different and would involve more work as would need to convert to cable speedo then as well.

If gearbox fits on without any major hassles or can get a gear box easily that will do the job i will go ahead with the conversion and post all updates on the build thread.

Any help appreciated

Kevin
