	Right from the book, so's I don't look too foolish:

	"Rather than boring and stroking the original 1800, Pete took the less
common approach of using the complete two litre engine and electronic
ignition from a Mk3 Golf 16V."
	
	Furthermore...

	"Engine: 1984cc 16V from '94 Mk3 Golf, complete with electronic
injection.  Cylinder head gas-flowed and ported, Schrick 260ƒ cams. 
Jetex 2.5" exhaust with DTM tailpipes.  ECU rechipped by AmD.  Max Power
205bhp at 6445rpm, torque 172 lb/ft at 6074rpm."

	So, it is definitely the 2.0 16V as opposed to the 8V that I'm digging
on right now.  WRT the airflow meter and t-body being able to accomodate
the volume of the 2.0 16V, I'd have to say "I haven't the foggiest."

	I've got $3.00 to my name right now...will he take an IOU?  Honestly, I
want to study all my options before I jump headlong into any major
engine mods.  But thanks for the offer.
