97 2.0 gti6 engine into a saxo - lee123
does any body know if a 306 gti6 engine will go into my little saxo vtr 2000 year. i have the full car here (the peugeot) so i have access to all the engine and box ancileries, will i need to get new shafts made up or can i run the engine on the saxo box?

its a little project for the sake of passing time.

lee why why oh why, the engines gr8 in the pug mate if it not broke dont fix it... no offence meant mate and i know its gr8 to have these little projects but a saxo lol

seriously tho i think you will have problems mating the gti 6 engine to your saxo gear box as im sure the fly wheel and gear box foot print were different on the GTI-6 than any of the other pugs and saxo's i think you'd have more sucess with an XSI or S16 engine (same block different ancileries managment and gear box(5 speed) down side is less powerful)

good luck mate :)
