Are those 205 gti alloys in the first pics? Also was it easy to get a mk1 spoiler on a mk2?

SPANNER IN THE WORKS
Bummer. Just got a text from the guy that was holding my engine for me and he has now sold it to someone else, although he has promised to fully refund my deposit.
This leaves me with a dilemma:
Do I look for another low milage B16b, so I can remain in gp A on the drag strip or;
Do I look out for a slightly cheaper B18C from a DC2 and rebuild that with wilder cams and NOS and just blow out gp A altogether?

so your saving on pistons and rods!
and you wouldnt want anymore than 350bhp in a saxo lol

That looks as though it cuold be a likely candidate if I don't stick to 1600!
That was a rapid little bugger!
How much bigger are they than a saxo engine (as I have no knowlege of VAG lumps!), and will it fit in the front without major changes to the chassis?
