Got A New Engine-Now To Fit It!

Featured Replies

Just got a 1 litre 6n with blown engine and also a 1600 AEE engine and most of the ancillaries with it to slot in and provide a bit more "go"

My question is-What parts will i need to change and which parts will i get away with keeping?

I've got a Haynes manual in the post, but until it gets here-any advice will be good!

Can anyone give me some ideas on this please?

I think all I'm missing from the AEE engine is te ECU and loom, would this be just a case of plug and play like the earlier Polos?

I'm guessing all the other components. Eg, starter, alternator etc will be the same wiring as the 1 litre.

Will the fuel delivery from the 1 litre pump be sufficient for the 1600?

Someone here must have uprated their 1000cc engine for something with a bit more vavavoom! :-(

Seem to recall someone posting on here a while ago; anywho, think they needed a different fuel pump, don't quote me on it though. Pretty certain you will though. (wait for someone more knowledgable though)

Cheers Beemer,

still waiting for my Haynes to hit the doormat, hopefully that will provide such info.

Anyone out there done this swap?
