Golfs have tall block engines.

Without mods, your choices are anything from a mk3 or 4 polo:-

NZ - 55bhp

GT - 3F engine 75bhp

G40 - PY engine 113bhp

AFH - 16v engine 100bhp

then there's the hybrids

so can i put this engine in my car without swaping the transmision, and how will i know that its a 1.3l.

the car looks like shit but the engine starts instantly after sitting ther for 1 year. but i can take it for a spin couse the brakes dont work.

Thanks..

look at the engine code on the block. i can't remember where it is off the top of my head. i think above the gearbox

so?, nobody knows...

above the gearbox sounds familiar.

5th gear was an optional extra.

above the alternator where the engine mount meets the block,

the car is left hand drive and a proper mk2 GT, it has a servo and everything!

I reckon the engine could be a GK engine code. keep it as it mate, dont mess about changing stuff, tidy it up and youll be on with a rare minter

yes, but i have a coupe in almost brand new condition, but it has 1.0l, and the red one from the pictures is for sale but it has no papers so it cant be registerd.. and i could get it for 50 ponuds(the whole car), my plan is to take out the engine that is probably 1.3l , and put it in mine.

if i dont buy it the car will become that little metal cube :)

i ma just wondering will the engine fit in mine without changing anything ot the chassis.

Sorry for bad english.

you wont need to hack about with any bits of chassis mate, itll be a straight fit.
