Re: Possible engine conversions (1sik95jetta)
Technically you could put just about any engine in a golf. I saw an S10 with a Twin turbocharged viper V-10 in it. There was a Mid-engine corvair with a 454 in it.
I personally can tell you there is an aweful lot of fab just in my MKIII 2.0Turbo build. (about 20 hours so far, and I am not an amatuer at metal work )
The amount of work to make an engine with completely different dimensions, wiring, and peripherals is definately a task. And chances are you will get flamed pretty bad for even mentioning a Nissan engine in the VW forums.
But, if that is what you want to do, then go for it. It would certainly be a lot more original than the majority of the Dubs on here.
