Detilting A Gti6 Engine

Recommended Posts

Masekwm

Hopefully, locked away in my garage is my black 205 with it's GTi6 engine. The car was annoying me as the engine is tilted and is right next to the radiator.

 

How much work would it be to detilt it?

 

I guess it's Rad out again, inlet off and new gaskets for inlet and exhaust? Is the inlet the same as removing an 8v one? Tilt the engine forward and swap the exhaust manifold?

 

Miles - The exhaust I have is, I believe an early PugRacing one for a tilted engine, will this fit your modified manifold?

 

Thanks

Keith

Nothing to do with the inlet side, Subframe dropped down, Rack Removed from it, Speedo housing and I think lower engine mount off then the manifold comes off, Pain in the **** in the car but do-able without much trouble.

 

The D/P does allow for some tollances in the position of it so I would say it's OK

Thanks Miles, that doesn't sound that bad. I'll get cracking this weekend again.
