well the third motor is now in my mk1 and fired right up second try (the other two took tones of adjustments)
few minor things to tighten up and readdy to go
it also got louder and even tho the exhaust is the same
so here it is with new coilovers and no hood will be back on very soon (was easyier to tune it with it off)

yep baught the car with out drivetrain still got a good deal sadly the front end is too wrecked to ever be straight again but will take every useable piece and put it into my 83 gti (or if anyone has a solid rabbit shell or mk1 jetta shell that is somewhat solid) will all go into that
as for motor looking to do a g60 turbo (to kick pink tacos ass ) should be working on it again as long as the 4door stays together
will post all on the build thread _________________ 1983 rabbit 4door (drags the floor)
