I recently got given a low milage solid MK3 Fez its the 1.3 HCS (which deffinately dosent stand for "High Compression Sport")



I want to have a bit of fun with it and drop a 2.0 silvertop in but leave it looking completely standard (apart from some wider steel wheels and obviously some bigger brakes.

I know this is a tried and tested conversion so ive been doing research but still have a couple of questions...

Is it worth it?! How do they go with a 2.0 lump in, i take it the fact they weigh very little helps!?

Can i retain my gearbox for shorter ratios, if so what clutch/flywheel set up do i need?

Do i need to change the fuel tank or lines?


Any help would be apperiated
