yep. its just that easy. any 2.0 16v block will do. you'll need headbolts and a headgasket, but thats about it. you might as welldo the clutch, and a rear main seal isnt too expensive, and thats a worthwhile "while youre in there" thing. of course theres other things you *can* do, but nothing thats really necessary. btw, i did actually reuse a gasket and headbolts once (with no problems, i might add) but thats cause i was in a rush and i was planning on scrapping the car in the near furture anyway. > Dennis(from Canada) eh! :-) i was just in canada the other day...took a day trip to niagra. the whole time i couldnt stop laughing, simply cause i was in canada. i was in a whole differnt country. it was great. ben randolph international 92 16v gti _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
