Love that one above btw! I dont sppose you know how hard it is to mount do you?
Theres quite abit to do if your mk2 is standard i.e. on a steering box, hyd clutch and std tunnel all these will need looking at along with the gear box and prop.

It isn't as simple as just putting the engine in but saying that its not realy difficult as i did it,

Once you make the comitment to move away from the x flow im not sure if i would go for a v6 cologne tuning and parts arnt that avalable or cheap.

Ive got loads of pictures and info if you go for it, im now in the middle of building a caged and semi spaced framed yb powered mk2.
