Mk1 Advice Wanted

Post by mk1freshman »

Howsit everyone

Im currently in the process of buying a mk1, either 1.6 or 1.8 (looking between 82 and 97 models). I would just like some advice and input with regards to this project. So just keen to get a feeler for costs that will be involved as. Might be carb or fi, not sure yet. So here is a list of ideas I have with regards to this.

2L 8V ADY or APK put in (Want to know what needs to be done to the vehicle in order to have it in proper working condition with regards to drivetrain, brake system, gearbox and induction).
288 cams and 4-2-1 branch. This is my preference but I would like to know what I would need to do on a 1.6/1.8 and the costs involved in order to make the power of the ADY/APK.

This is my 2nd car and I really want to make it in great driving condition, unlike my 1st car which constantly broke down. Your comments and advice will be appreciated gents :hi:
