If you can find one, the 1.8L from a 1984+ (GTI, Scirocco, 85+
Golf, 85+ Jetta) would be a better swap.  Much more power to be
had, and still can be quite inexpensive.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say about 65-70hp.  The 1.8L JH
code engine would be 90 or so minimum.

Mechanical/solid lifters. SOHC.

Hope that helps a little bit. :)
