Engine Swap question
I have an '81... stock everything.
This spring I was considering an engine upgrade (1.7 is seemingly weak).
I don't have money for much... I was thinking just going to a JH 1.8l
and going from there.
Now, I just saw an ad in the local classifieds for an '84 rabbit GTI
engine with 50k miles for $100. Is this a 1.8l?
Should I investigate this engine since coupling it with my old '81 car
would be easier than with a newer engine?
Will any of these engines mount right to my existing 5-spd?
