Polo 6n engine into a mk2 Golf?

Basically i have a lovely little polo 1.4 8v 6n great solid engine just wondering if i can find a mk2 Shell how hard would it be to put the engine and gearbox in?????

Any thoughts, tips or help would be much appreciated

Cheers

Ben

recon would be pretty straight forwrd swap tbh if u gt the loom ect

well i've got the whole car ere using it as a daily just had the engine (head) done and it's solid now!

just thought a mk2 1.4 would be cheap to run and insure and i can't find many tidy low mileage mk2's anymore so i'll build one!

Run yes.

Insurance might bite you ddo, as its still classed as an engine conversion.

Example being mk3 polo's, insuring an original GT is cheaper than insuring a CL thats had a GT engine fitted.


If you get hold of a 1.3 engined golf then you can circumnavigate it as the engines are identical (expect for carb over injection).

I would do what cymro said, buy a solid 1.3 engined golf or shell and drop the 1.4 engine and not tell anyone (insurance) ;-)
