A4 1.8T into a B reg Audi 80

Anyone know if an inline 1.8T from an A4 wil go into a B reg Audi 80 withthe inline 1.8 carb engine?I know it's off topic but my mate has the chance of a 1.8T, gearbox, driveshafts, loom an ECU for 800 notes and he's champin at the bit...

 

Yup, it'll fit- might be tight to the bonnet though. Even the 8v motor runs
close for height. If its a budget job and you want to use the original loom
etc. Make sure you've definitely got everything. ie. keys, clocks,
immobiliser transponder from steering column/ingnition barrel area.
Otherwise you'll have a hard time firing it up.

HTH

 

it should do! It should make a nice car too!

 

can't you get those old 80's with the quattro running gear? hmmmm
