...I've just scored VTEC B16 running gear, complete with all the conversion bits necessary to drop it into my 216 GTI.

Is that a 160bhp 1.6 Vti engine?

Yup.

I'm having it chipped to rev to 9k though.

Already got a Scorpion stainless system, and will be getting a decent four branch manifold for it, before we drop it in.

Should be, especially once the front brakes have been upgraded as well.

Drilled discs and performance pads.

Still s**te, though.

Still, the 75's slammed to da deck, innit?

Good man!!! Let me know if you ever wanna sell it - I would happily part with the Swift gor that :)

Blimey, that's 2 of us on here doing engine swaps. Anyone would think this is a mods group!!!

LOL.

It's very unlikely this one will be going anywhere (with my permission), for a long time - I've wanted one of these for ages. :-D

Indeed...

'Now showe us your mrs baps...'
