Ahoy chaps, here a question for you, and if your up for it, beer tokens.
I know where I can get hold of a 2.0 K series for free (The chap bought the car for his mum, but didn't realise it was a 2 litre, and is happy to swap the engine for my 1.6K ) How easy is the swap? And what else needs to be changed?
Ta,
Ryn

do you mean 2.0 T? I think this gets rather involved

alot would need to be changed, engine mounts are different, ecu, manifold, exhaust, the suspension and brakes would need to be changed so it can cope with the extra power, i think maybe the gearbox, exhaust as well.
No, just the NASP 2.0 K series? Well, I think..
Its out of a 220SLi, if that helps?
EDIT:
Didn't see your post there Brucie, thanks for the info.. Now all I have to wonder - is it worth the trouble..

It won't be a k in a 220 , it'll be a T if i'm not mistaken. Expect more fuel stops if you do
