I’ve been told with some (alot of) work and of course money. You can fit them in. Apprently ‘similar’ to putting a volvo engine in.

Any truth to this?

Flans used custom mounts, custom wiring, custom downpipe, custom driveshafts… the list carried on and on. It’s possible but unless your a competant mechanic/engineer, then I’m sure the 20vT engine is not the route to go.

As Matteh said, it was at FCS but it didn’t seem a patch on the old car Flan used to drive.

as the guy said, need loadsa custom bits, and when you can run 400bhp on an f7p you realy have to ask what is the point? the price of 400bhp on an f7p will probably be around the same as getting the VAG engine in - standard 225bhp?

Just want something unique really. If i had the spare cash i could get a 182 engine as a bloke that i know has just crashed his. But i won’t be doing this for a while as insurence, cost to run ect is abi much. Idealy i would love to get my hands on a 197 and tubro it :D. But i’m not a mechanic at all. I do have mates that are very good with cars (mainly redtops) and would be able to do the work on the cheap. Kinda a project that i would fund lol, but able to learn on the way (picking up a few things anyway by readin the technical help and projects ect).

What about running r1 carbs?

I love my car, just want people to look at it rather than take a glance if you know what i mean, not by bodykits and flashing neons, but the engine. What cars should be. Also have something abit special to show off!

Thanks again guys.
