I have read through the first few pages of the 16v sticky, and was wondering if I could get a bit more clarification without going through the 50+ pages.
I dont see many older vw cars around the junk yards here, and I was wondering if there are any later model parts that I might be able to utilize.
Could a 2000's or later car prove heads and manifolds for my mk3 block for example? Of course I would ultimately buy another engine to build up for this project, just curious if there is anything else viable?
What are the real limitations to keeping with my OBD2 electronics? For example, if i used my stock bottom end (compression ratio, etc... aside) would there be any problems with finding a later 16vtop end and "slapping it on" the OBD2 bottom end?
I wouldnt be totally against using a stand alone if I needed to, and I understand there are other internal engine parts that need sourcing. At this point I am mostly interested in physical fitment, and as I work this through can sort all of the other things out.
I have read numerous threads that people have made asking about "how do I do this?" and i am not exactly asking how to do it as much as what kind of changes may or may not have been that could keepthisfrom working.
thanks
Dustin
