[tech] 2.0l 8V swap - refresher

[pellom@YorkU.CA (Sal Guzzo)]

Greg,

Thanks for the info so far.  I have a coupla questions tho which are eluding
me so far.  I managed to build the block off plate at my dad's work but I
still need to pick up a freeze plug.  What size did you use?

The other thing I need to determine pertains to the distributor.  I'm gonna
use the Audi distributor with the Audi intermediate shaft.  Do I need to
chage the guts of the distributor with the one from the 16V?  I can't see
why I would need to do so.  Any suggestions?

I'm presently working on the KS wiring and it's not all that terribly
difficult.  Or so I think.  The only other thing I need answered is...do I
need the full throttle switch from the 16V?

All info is greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Sal
