I've read that a mk2 top end on a mk1 engine is a viable tuning mod...Any thoughts on this, as I've got a complete(less block,pistons,crank)motor for a mk2 2000 'W' 1.8
...yes, everything is still connected to the head, including the exhaust manifold, I think! The bottom end threw a conrod through the block, but it was easier to buy another motor, than find just a bottom end
