#1: engine swap Author: austin316, Location: crawleyPosted: Tue Jul 12, 2011 4:21 am ---- Hi all, can anyone tell me how hard it would be to do an engine swap from a 1.1 to a 2.0 138? Would i need new looms, clutch etc? And also, roughly how much would i be looking at spending on upgrading the parts needed to fit the engine?
Thanks
